echo Here are brief details of what they do - see PCPLUS for more:
echo.
echo AA - copies a complete floppy, such as the SuperDisk, into a
echo named sub-directory on a hard disk, preserving the directory
echo structure of the floppy.
echo CGA2 - emulates a CGA screen on a Hercules monitor, so that some
echo of the CGA-only programs on this and other disks may run
echo on a mono screen.
echo GLOBAL - can be used to precede any DOS command and make it act
echo over all files in all sub-directories. Careful with
echo DEL *.*, though!
echo NVRSAVE - and NVRREST save and restore the non-volatile RAM area
echo of Amstrad PCs. This way, you can restore your individual
echo NVR settings when you replace your batteries.
