P.S. to run it is TUTORDOS.EXE
a wee bit of info on it
TUTOR DOS is an
interactive, beginner's DOS tutorial. It assumes that the user
knows virtually nothing about MS-DOS.
The program consists of an introduction, twenty-one lessons, a
final test, and a few closing remarks. The program is contained
in twenty-six program files, three batch files, and one
documentation file. (There is a complete list of the names of
these files at the end of this document.)
TUTOR DOS offers several advantages over currently available
commercial tutorials.
*TUTOR DOS was designed to talk 'to' you, rather than
'at' you.
*All of the lessons in TUTOR DOS are quite short and
none of them should take more than twenty to twenty-
five minutes to complete.
*You may use the [ESCAPE] key to exit any lesson at any
time.
*TUTOR DOS has been programmed to accept several
answers to each of its questions.
*If you give the wrong answer to a question, TUTOR
DOS will provide a hint.
*If you can't seem to get the right answer to a
question, keep trying. After you've tried three times,
TUTOR DOS will type the right answer for you.
*Each lesson ends with a quiz. These quizzes will help
you judge how well you've learned the material in each
lesson.
*The course ends with a comprehensive examination.
TUTOR DOS will analyze your answers and (if necessary)
give you a list of lessons to review.
*If you score over eighty percent on the test, TUTOR
DOS will print out a certificate of achievement with
your name on it.
*TUTOR DOS is distributed as SHAREWARE. If you enjoy
it, I ask that you send me a donation of ten dollars.
This is far less expensive than commercial DOS
tutorials which generally cost thirty to fifty dollars.
