CHAPTER SUMMARY
1. File attributes are tracked by the operating system.
2. There are four file attributes: A (archive), H (hidden), S (system), and R (read-only).
3. The ATTRIB command allows you to manipulate file attributes.
4. The SUBST command allows you to substitute an unused drive letter for a long, unwieldy path name.
5. The XCOPY command allows you to copy files and subdirectories.
6. There are many parameters available to the XCOPY command. Among them are parameters that enable you to:
a. copy by date (/D)
b. copy hidden files (/H)
c. copy subdirectories (/S)
d. overwrite read-only files (/R)
e. copy empty directories (/E)
f. keep file attributes (/K)
7. DOSKEY is an external, memory-resident program that loads automatically in Windows XP. It allows you to do command line editing.
8. A memory-resident program is commonly referred to as a (Terminate Stay Resident) TSR program. Once loaded into memory, it remains in memory for the duration of the session.
9. The arrow and function keys in DOSKEY allow you to do command-line editing by recalling and listing the previously keyed in commands.
10. You can create macros in a command line window.
11. On the desktop, you use Notepad to edit text files. In the Command Prompt window, you use the EDIT text editor.
12. EDIT can be used to edit or create ASCII text files.
