commands

sometimes I feel confused when I work with DOS and Linux at the same time.

I sometimes type ls, cp, rm in DOS and
I sometimes type dir, copy, del in Linux

It's very confusing

I think it will be good if ReactOS uses both of commands

or maybe just aliases

I don't see why; these are different worlds. There are no English road signs in Russia are there?
even if you alias the commands, the parameters would still be different.

you're right but we dont use parameters very much.

I think just aliases will be ok

"we"?
I do A LOT in Windows and *nix from a command line and do I use parameters A LOT. I think it would be ridiculous to have an 'ls' command available in windows if it doesn't behave exactly the same as in Unix.

I think that should be something you can install later, you can make your programms that can do this jobs with the names:

//C++:
#define command "xy"
int main(char* args[])//not sure!
{
system(command+args);//+args correct??!!
return 0;
}

mfg

rf

exactly.

Or, alternatively, you can get mingw utils, unpack the archive somewhere and include them into your %PATH%.

basically, it's a solved problem

and Ros isn't in the business of duplicating other perfectly good open source solutions (one hopes) just Microsofts closed source solutions - in this case: the dir, copy, delete commands etc

What about 4DOS NT equivalent 4NT (I guess)? It had some useful feats.

a question: what is similar to dos command this linux one?

Code: Select all

cat text.txt | grep something > result.txt

Post by **Haos** » Thu Jul 03, 2008 1:22 pm

MS DOS? None i can remember

If you mean NT command shell, then:

Code: Select all

find "something" [patch]text.txt > result.txt

commands
