Dirty little secret ... DOS stuff

DOS help: What does it do?

DOS help simply calls the DOS command with the /? parameter!

You could write you own ...

HELP.BAT only needs one line containing:

%1 /?

Then when you type HELP <command> You'd get help with <command>.

Cheerios, PW.

P.S. Actually DOS HELP is a little more than this, but VERY little.
