	FGA: 4DOS is not an operating system. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The name "4DOS" was originally a pun (literally: "for DOS").
		It's a pun that many people regret, because over the past decade or so countless people have foolishly assumed that 4DOS is an operating system simply because it ends in the three letters 'D', 'O', 'S'.

	JP Software 4DOS
		By adding a wide array of features that DOS omitted, 4DOS makes the command line easy to use, giving you more power and flexibility than you ever imagined.
		4DOS adds features such as shorthand "aliases" for commonly used commands, a pop-up directory history window, and the ability to copy, move, delete, or list multiple files with a single command.
		Batch file users will be amazed at the power and speed 4DOS adds to the DOS batch processor with sophisticated new batch commands.

		In some cases the primary 4DOS shell can find its directory automatically and this option is not needed, but we recommend that you use it on all primary shells to ensure that the directory is found.
		In 4OS2 and 4NT, and in 4DOS when it is started as a secondary shell (for example from the Windows desktop), the /K switch has no effect; using it is the same as placing the command (without a /C or /K) at the end of the startup command line.
		Extracting or Copying the Program Files When you extract or copy the 4DOS files, be sure to place them in their own directory, rather than using the same directory as a previous version of the program, a directory used by other JP Software products, or a directory used by other software.

		If you are installing 4DOS on floppy disks, you may not be able to use the Extract all files option because the files may not fit on a single diskette.
		To load 4DOS, the master environment, or global alias and history lists into a UMB, you must be using a memory manager or XMS driver which provides both the ability to remap memory into the area between 640K and 1MB (to create the UMBs) and XMS or DOS 5.0 UMB support (to manage the UMBs).
		If you find that 4DOS is slower at performing a particular function than you are used to, you may have asked it to do more than you ask of traditional DOS commands.

	4DOS removes /Y option (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		It happens that with one of their recent builds of 4DOS 4.50 (most probably 124 -- the current build is 125) they silently but deliberately removed support for the startup option /Y in order to invoke the batch file debugger.
		Unfortunately, that they are thereby breaking an IMHO vital part of DOS compatibility and cause significant inconveniences to users who have to single-step their startup files in an emergency case does not seem to occur to them it seems...
		So, if you are a user of 4DOS, this mail is intended to inform you of this modification, which otherwise may escape you until the next time you have to single-step the configuration files in an emergency case and find it to be no longer working...

		4DOS, 4OS2, and 4NT are command interpreters or "Shells." That means that they display a C:\> or [C:\] prompt, wait for you to type something, and then react to your commands.
		4DOS, 4OS2, and 4NT understand all of the commands you may already know and add to them.
		Their purpose is to make the command line friendlier, easier to use, and much more powerful and versatile without requiring you to use or learn a new program, a new set of commands, or a new style of work.
