  • Nice video. Very, very basic though :) Some things to keep in mind when using edit from windows:

    1) Closing the dos window with unsaved text (or any other dos based application) will NOT ask you if you want to save your changes! I know a number of people that purely rely on that function for saving data, and you will be left cold if you mistake there.

    2) Learn to use hotkeys! Like alt+f for the file menu, etc.. MSDos was just not designed for mouse usage and the mouse support is terrible.

  • Dear SadBunnyNL,

    Thank you for the advice. I will keep it in mind for future videos.

    If you have any questions regarding this video do not hesitate to ask and I will answer you whenever I have the opportunity.

    Thank you,

  • i wonder if you know what MS DOS is. I've been using it all my life basically

  • That's actually the QBASIC editor. It's not a text editor, it's made for writing programs.
