Hi u out there.

Has anyone tried before the "+"-DOS commands and can tell me about them?
What i mean is: (Examples...)
+md   creates a sub-dir called d
+ md  creates a sub-dir called md
+copy   tries to copy the file Y
+ copy  tries to copy the file PY
+  copy tries to copy the file OPY

That works fine with every DOS-command on all DOS-Versions since 2.11 i tried
with...

This is usefull for creating a tmp-sub dir that u only wish to use once and
which u delete later...:
type +md   create "D"
type +cd   change to it....
type cd .. to leave it...
type +rd   to remove it.

Ok, my question is: Does that only happen on MY DOS-Version(s)?
What is this originally thougt for? ;-)

Have a nice day
Stefan

 ...for this is my 1st international posting, i hope i did well... ;-)
