=== SVARCOM ===
SvarCOM is the SvarDOS command line interpreter, known usually under the name
"COMMAND.COM". It is designed and maintained by Mateusz Viste, and distributed
under the terms of the MIT license.
For the time being, it is an incomplete, "work in progress" project. The goal
is to make SvarCOM the default SvarDOS shell, replacing FreeCOM.
Why replacing FreeCOM, you ask? See FREECOM.TXT for details.
Since SvarCOM is a work-in-progress effort, it still lacks a few things:
- no support for redirections or pipes (eg. file.exe | more > out.txt)
- no batch file support
- few internal commands missing: BREAK, CHCP, CLS, CTTY, LH, REN, COPY, DATE,
TIME, VOL, PAUSE, ECHO, IF, REM, SHIFT
Latest version available here: http://svardos.osdn.io/svarcom
=== INTERNAL COMMANDS ========================================================
SvarCOM implements the following internal commands. For help on each command,
run it with a "/?" argument.
CD/CHDIR - displays the name of or changes the current directory
DEL/ERASE - deletes one or more files
DIR - displays a list of files and subdirectories in a directory
EXIT - quits the command.com program (command interpreter)
MD/MKDIR - creates a directory
PATH - displays or sets a search path for executable files
PROMPT - changes the DOS command prompt
RMDIR - removes (deletes) a directory
SET - displays, sets or removes DOS environment variables
TYPE - displays the contents of a text file
VER - displays the DOS version
VERIFY - tells DOS whether to verify that files are written correctly
