Pick a language . Start learning.
If you go to sourceforge.net , there will be many many examples of text editors with the source code so that you can see how others have done it.
Part of the skill of a programmer however is knowing when to write from scratch and when to reuse what is already available.

a million) rd so which you will desire to delete c:testtest you will possibly form rd c:testtest and you'd be left with c:attempt 2a) format to format d, form format d: 2b) deltree /Y d: this deletes all of d: *word* in case you haven't any longer have been given the deltree command, you don't make use of MS-DOS 5 or bigger. On abode windows 2000 and XP there's a command on the spot, which isn't MS-DOS, yet a CLI (command line interface). it relatively is extra useful than MS-DOS. besides, to do the comparable in W2000 or XP command on the spot, form del d:*.* /s /f 3) quite a few strategies to try this, one is to function the CD ROM tension letter to the direction environment variable. In appropriate ms-dos, you will possibly upload the command 'set direction=%direction%;', so once you're cd rom is d:, the 'set direction=%direction%;d:'. it is in the autoexec.bat. On XP you will possibly circulate the administration panel, gadget, greater and there you will stumble on a button 'enivronment variables'. you may then use the batch record you created. Or create a batch record that specifies the direction @echo off d:hi or use a parameter @echo off %1hi For the latter, you will possibly would desire to form a d:

I am assuming you mean a text editor like MS Edit for DOS. Since it already exists, I am not sure why you want to create one. Also, Vista doesn't support DOS at all. If you are running XP or older, you can type edit at the command prompt. If you don't know how to program, just follow the other people's advice and get Dev-C++ or VC++ and select a command line project and you will need to use the windows console headers to manipulate the console.

First of all, you need to know a programming language to do that, like C++. I use a program called 'Bloodshed Dev-C++', available for free at Bloodshed.net/download.html . Hope that helps. And C++, i think, is one of the easiest programming languages to learn to program for Dos.

just follw the link
www.programmersheaven.com/ mb/CandCPP/74839/74839/ReadMessage.aspx
i have an example...
you cant run several disk defragmentation at the same time over multiple diska..
that is yo have to start the defragmentation process once the first has ended..
here what you can do with a batch file or a MS-DOS program...
run a notepad and type the foll.
.....
defrag c: -a
defrag d: -a
defrag e:-f
.......
save the file with a .bat extension...(batch file)
when you run this file by dounle clicking on it... you can see the command prompt opened automatically and has started executing the "defrag c: -a" statement and then "defrag d: -a"...
see for more on defrag , go type defrag on command prompt.
presto !! you have written a ms-dos program....
you can make use of this technique for any of the standard exe files supported by your windows...

You will need to learn a programming language such as C++ or C#.
Then download Visual Studio Express. Then you would use that to design your program.
Download Visual Studio for your choice language here:
