Path statement • Absolute pathname • C:\US\sales\salesreps\smith • Relative pathname • CD \smith • “Program not found”
8.3 File Specification A:\DIRNAME\FILENAME.EXT Drive location Directory location File Name Can be up to 8 eight characters The following characters are not allowed: . ” / \ [ ] < > + = ; ‘ Spacebar Extension
Commands • Name Options Parameters • Keyword Drive Options • Keyword Source file File switches • Do what? To who? How?
Command Essentials • You must enter words shown in capital letters y). • You must supply any items shown in italic letters • Items in square brackets [] are optional. • Items separated by a bar ( | ) means you can enter one of the other ( Example OFF | ON ) • An Ellipsis (…) indicates you can repeat as many time as you want. • You must include all punctuation, except square brackets and vertical bars.
Global Filename Characters • ? = can be any character • * = any character can occupy that position and all remaining positions • DIR A:INPUT.??? Or DIR A:INPUT.* • ******WARNING******* • DELETE C:*.* • ******WARNING*******
Batch Commands • ECHO,FOR,GOTO,IF,PAUSE,REM • A batch file is a file containing 1 or more commands that DOS executes. ext = .bat • ECHO ON • REM This is an example of a batch cmd. • Copy C:prog1.exe to C:prog2.exe • DIR • Autoexec.bat = start program at DOS start
Redirection • DIR >PRN Sends cmd to printer • DIR >catalog Sends cmd to filename • MYPROG <INPUT.TXT • DIR >> filename appends to file

Physical Structure of a Diskette • Formatting • concentric circles called tracks • pie-shaped wedges called sectors • Data is written to the tracks as bits,0’s and 1’s • bits become magnetized spots on the disk • spacing prevents one spot from affecting other spots • Read/write heads • above and below the diskette move in unison • Diskette made up of Mylar • covered with either cobalt oxide or iron oxide to hold magnetic charge • Formatting writes the division symbol ÷ F6 1111 0110 to each track
Logical Structure of a Diskette • The BIOS manages the disk in sectors, physical terms • a sector holds 512 bytes of data • The OS manages the disk in clusters, logical terms • A cluster is defined as the smallest unit of data that can be read from or written to at one time • File allocation unit (FAT) • One cluster equals the amount of storage space per two sectors, top and bottom of the diskette 512 bytes X 2 = 1024 (one cluster, double-density 3.5” diskette ) 80 X 9 = 720 (one side of diskette in sectors, the whole diskette in terms of clusters) 1024 X 720 = 737,280

That results in an average search time (½ revolution) of 100 ms.
