ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL APPEN. B - DOS NOTES
B . D O S T E C H N I C A L N O T E S
This section reveals the extensions and altera-
tions made to certain DOS calls. If you are not
a machine/assembly language programmer, this
section will probably make little sense to you.
None of this information need be understood to
use the enhanced DOS.
The information outlined in this section is
proprietary to Rana Systems. It is supplied to
you strictly for your own enlightenment. If you
wish to make use of this information for your
own private non-commercial purposes, please feel
free. However, due to the fact that this infor-
mation extends beyond the point of normal DOS
usage, Rana Systems will not furnish any addi-
tional support concerning the information pro-
vided in this section.
This section relies upon the reader being famil-
iar with interfacing programs to the three main
segments of DOS. Information concerning these
interfaces is split between two manuals: Apple’s
The DOS Manual and Quality Software’s Beneath
Apple DOS. Quality Software’s manual is by far
the more informative concerning machine level
interfacing to the DOS File Manager and RWTS,
while it leaves the explanation of the Command
Interpreter’s text commands to Apple’s manual.
