PROMERGE.EXE, and ROMDISK.EXE are support files that are 
required to use MAKE_A.BAT, MAKE_B.BAT, and PUT_A.BAT. 

Drive A is a 64K block of flash memory that is a read-only DOS drive. 
You can configure drive A, but you cannot write to it when you run an 
application. The next table describes the files that are factory installed on 
drive A. 

ANTIFS.EXE 

Provides an Installable File System (IFS) for the Trakker 
Antares proprietary file system so that DOS can recognize 
and use drives C, D, and G. Removing the ANTIFS.EXE 
file from drive A may result in no drive C. 

AUTOEXEC.BAT 

Loads programs and defines paths. When you run 
DOS.BIN to start DOS, the AUTOEXEC.BAT file runs 
automatically. 

COMMAND.COM 

Supports internal ROM-DOS commands. It is required for 
user interface and batch file processing. 
COMMAND.COM is the default DOS command that 
displays the DOS prompt. 

COMMAND.HLP 

Provides help for ROM-DOS commands. You can type /? 
after most ROM-DOS commands to get help or 
information about a command. 

CONFIG.SYS 

Loads device drivers. For limitations, see “Limitations of 
ROM-DOS” on page 327.

The AUTOEXEC.BAT commands are not 
displayed on the terminal as they are executed. 

antifs.exe 

Installs the Installable File System (IFS) for the 
Trakker Antares proprietary file system so that 
DOS can recognize and use drives C, D, and G. 

set dircmd=/p/a/o:gn

hidden files (/a) by pages (/p); group directories 
first (/o:g); and sort by filename (n).

Directs DOS to look for commands and 
programs in the root directories of drives A, B, 
and C.
