you can learn command prompt in an easy way.
Learning from the very basic until the advanced
section.
In this tutorial we will learn how to use Command

cd(change directory); dir(view directory contents);
type(view text file); write(Graphical User Interface
text editor); edit(command prompt text editor – XP);
cp(copy file); mv(move file); cls(Clear Screen);
16 Steps Tutorial Basic Command Prompt:
1. For this tutorial, I have a few files for you and need
to download to make you more understanding this
basic tutorial. (I guarantee that the file below is virus
free)
2. Extract the files and copy the folder "cmdlearn"
into drive C:\
3. Click Run(see shortcut here) and type "cmd" in the
text box, click OK.
4. This is your Command Prompt console look like
(I'm using Windows 7, so for Windows XP maybe it's
a slightly different but dont worry about it::-) )
5. In your Command Prompt, type cd\, that means
we will change into the drive C:\.
6. We're in drive C:\ now, we need to change
directory into cmdlearn. Type "cd cmdlearn"
7. Okay that's easy isn't it? now is time to view our
directory contents by using dir command.
If you need to clear the text, just type cls(Clear
Screen).
8. We will start from "program folder". We need to
change directory into there, type cd program.
9. Inside the program folder, there's a small
application using BAT extension about asking your
name. Simply type myapp.bat in your command
prompt. This method also can be used to run an EXE
or VBS, because Windows will automatically know
how to run that extension.
You can use TAB for auto-complete command
prompt
10. Now let's change into text directory. Type cd ..
\text to go into text directory.
The double dotted means that we will go into the
parent directory "cmdlearn".
11. To view the text contents in mytext.txt you can
use "type mytext.txt". If you want to edit the text,
You can use "write mytext.txt" to edit using
Wordpad.
12. For editing the text in Windows XP, You can type
"edit mytext.txt".
13. Now let's change directory to our last lesson "..
\tocopy"
14. To copy the picture(mario.png) from tocopy
folder into topaste folder simply type copy
mario.png ..\topaste.
15. To Move the picture(superman.png) from tocopy
folder into topaste folder, You can type move
superman.png ..\topaste.
16. To Delete the picture(tux.png) you can type del
tux.png.
Okay that's enough for your basic learning about
Command Prompt :-).
