Aptiva - Creating CMD files in OS/2

Applicable to: World-Wide

Creating a batch file to edit your CONFIG.SYS file:

At an OS/2 window, type E C.CMD and press Enter. Now add the following lines and save the file as plain text with the name C.CMD:

@C: (or the letter of your OS/2 hard disk)

@CD\

@E CONFIG.SYS

This creates a simple but very fast way to edit the CONFIG.SYS file.

Type C and press Enter.


Creating a batch file to edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

At the OS/2 prompt, type E A.CMD and press Enter. Now add the following lines and save the file as plain text with the name A.CMD:

@C: (or the letter of the OS/2 hard disk)

@CD\

@E AUTOEXEC.BAT

These are simple but effective command files designed to simplify common OS/2 tasks similar to batch (BAT) files under DOS.
