DOS Tips in XP

 DOS Tips in XP

Windows XP cmd tip (DOS isn’t dead... it just smells funny) Some command-line folder creation examples: 

To create multiple folders at once, add them directly to the "md" command: 

C:\> md this is a test 

To create a folder several folders deep, use: 

C:\> md this\is\a\test 

Creating a folder with a long name requires the double-quote at the beginning: 

C:\> md "this is a test 

Bonus tip: Windows XP supports the forward slash "/" as a folder divider. Unix/Linux users: don't let the DOS environment get you down. Use a Unix-style CD command to change your present working directory: 

C:\> cd Windows/system32/drivers/etc
