directory commands to figure out things.
Yes, that's what I do. And the confusing part is integrating the UNIX
structure with what you see in the Finder.
Conclusion: DOSBox is not up to even a 1.0 version. This is a beta
version IMHO.
Perhaps since I am not a veteran Xy user I am not using the advanced
commands others are needing/using. I simply typed "tree" in my Xy command
line and my screen treated the Editor.exe location as my root C: directory
and listed my document folders which were contained in my XyWrite folder
on the Mac.
I wonder why your results are different. I'm using OS 10.3.4 and XyDOS 4.018.
How 'bout you?
