Description:
TRGdos is the first and only, true DOS environment for TRGPro handheld computers (a TRGdos application launcher for all other Palm handhelds is in the works).
TRGdos is very similar to the good old' COMMAND.COM.
It's not only used for CF file operations - it's a DOS environment were TRGdos applications and batch files can be launched.
TRGdos has the following features:
True DOS commands: CLS, DIR, REN, MD, RD, CD, TYPE, ECHO, PAUSE, VER, COPY, DEL, ...
Minimal support for simple batch (.BAT) files, including AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Support for TRGdos applications (A TRGdos utility is included in the ZIP file as a sample).
DOS application library freely available to developers for developing DOS applications for TRGdos.
Launches native Palm apps and TRGdos applications with command-line parameters from the command prompt.
No need of unique PalmOS registration IDs: All DOS applications use the same ID and operate under TRGdos.
TRGdos applications are of small size, since there's no graphical user interface overhead.
DOS command-line parameter and batch-control power.
Scrollable 40x25 output console.
Easy to port existing DOS (text) applications to TRGdos: The TRGdos programmer's library is using standard STDIO functions: printf(), gets(), getch(), open(), close(), read(), write(),malloc(), main(int argc, char *argv[]), etc...
