Information about “EZDOSS”

It's a DOS shell that the novice will love for its menus and
verification prompts. The experienced user will appreciate it for
"quick key" command execution, "expert mode" to let the more
experienced user work faster, and a unique operational design that
provides faster disk access.

One of the most annoying features of many DOS shells is each time a
drive is selected, a time-consuming search for subdirectories takes
place. With EZDOSS, this is greatly reduced by having the program
create a disk file the first time it reads a hard disk. This disk file
keeps track of where all the files are so when the drive is
selected again, the disk file can be read faster without searching for
subdirectories.

The power of a DOS shell is realized through features like multiple
file manipulation, precise "tagging" control by pattern, masking,
viewing text files, and locating files in any subdirectory by name or
