You may be right, in the end, but it is he who used ambiguous

us mortals have not.


It's a metaphor, my china ...


Your Chinese sucks!

... and Windows uses lots of metaphors, in order to make it "user
friendly"
and enable the user to avoid having to know all about the underlying
intricacies of the operating system.


'Twas the OP's words, not Windows. I don't know the OP well enough to
know that he speaks in metaphors. Do you?

Windows uses paper file folders as a metaphor for directories, which
is a bit like early cars having reins coming through the dashboard
and a socket for a whip.


Not really. And I really do hate car analogies; they are usually
strained beyond any utility.

The letter kills, but the spirit gives life, and Windows uses too
many
metaphors as it is, but it's in the spirit of Windows to do so, and
so if the user wants to leave the GUI in order to give commands to
the operating system, so be it.


But you don't "leave the GUI" when you invoke a command prompt. The
GUI is right their under the command prompt window.

He doesn't necessarily want to close Windows, just not work through
it for the moment.


Or so you assume.

Originally the GUI ran on top of the operating system, now it is
more integrated, but for the purpose of what the user wants to do,
it doesn't matter. The spirit of Windows is to try to be user
friendly. It doesn't always succeed, but it doesn't need people
deliberately trying to make it user hostile.


None of which disambiguates the OP's ambiguous statement.


See; that kind of reasoning is exactly why you are unqualified to
participate in threads such as the one the OP started here. You're all
about ego with no substance. You need to find a way to be right without
a hint of having anything the wrong way or with wrong information.
You're a real wart on the ass of progress, IMO. if all this hoopla
bothers you so much, go elsewhere until you can grow a thicker skin and
learn how to live amongst the "regular" people of the world. You do not
command the authority to cause everyone to think the way you do. Thanks
to the heavens.

There is no DOS in Windows XP so you can't do this as you could in
Win9x/ME.


Or, to answer what the OP really wants to know, click
Start | Programs | Accessories | Command prompt.


If it's not there, click Start | Run and enter this command
cmd /k
then click OK


I will never understand why normally helpful people say "there is
no DOS" and then stop, when they know perfectly well that everyone
but a few use "DOS" as a short term for "the command prompt". Is it
technically accurate? no, but neither are lots of short forms of
speech.


Actually, Microsoft describes the Command Prompt as a DOS window
too, in so many places one could never count them. It's even in the
Help & Support area on your own computer. The proper definition is
that XP is not BUILT ON TOP OF DOS as other windws versions were
and thus is not DOS based as other windows versions were. It does
in fact still have a DOS window, found in the Command Prompt, and
today it is much more than a simple DOS emulator since it has many
many more possible commands at the user's disposal.
Purists such as you encountered are silly and nonsensical beings in
that they have no wish to help the OP but rather only wish to show
their own egoes to the world. Who cares?


You tell them, Twayne. DOS works with XP. If I can move stuff around,
get rid of files etc that won't move in Windows, et al......I have
DOS!!!! Pseudo or whatever the so-called MS fundi's want to call
it.......it's freakin' DOS!! Just because MS used the story as a
sales pitch (people were scared of DOS) "Windows XP has no DOS"
these afore- mentioned fundis use the same dogma, "No such thing as
DOS in....." till they begin to actually believe their chant.


DOS does not work with XP and cannot read NTFS volumes without 3rd-
party applications such as NTFS4DOS. *The command prompt is not the
DOS operating system just because it is a command-line interpreter.
This isn't just arguing semantics here, it really is NOT the same as
DOS. *It isn't even an emulator. *DOS is 16-bit, programs that run
under Windows XP's command line are 32-bit.


By your logic, Windows 95 is the same as XP in the Windows Classic
theme because they look similar.


Calling the command-line interpreter "DOS" is just as ignorant as
calling a computer tower or monitor the CPU.


Once again, another post with totally moot points. *If you have no room
in your life for newbies who haven't yet gotten hold of the lingo, then
you should go elsewhere to show off your ego. *If you aren't going to
address the OP's question somehow, then you have/had no business posting
anything here.
Windows95 is windows.
windows is not necessarily win9x or winXP or ... .
* *Therefore I could easily say "windows" and mean XP. And since this is
an XP group ...
This post is of no use to anyone.


I did address the op's question in my first post. It's text, go read
it again.

It's usually easier to educate them when they'll admit they know

There's a reason we need details. If somebody comes in and states "my

Your way of thinking seems to be to just tell them to do something
