5286.0. "Looking for more completed AmigaDOS v2 documentation" by DECWET::DAVIS (Mark W. Davis 206.865.8749) Wed Dec 18 1991 22:36

    Is there more complete documentation on the features and use of
    AmigaDOS v2.0x?	The reason I ask is that I have read of window
    commands and other 'features' of the OS that are not documented in the
    manual that C= distributed with the upgrade.  For example; a guy on
    usenet wanted to have his shell window iconify in a certain place after
    clicking on the zoom gadget.  One response was to open the shell with
    the command:

    newshell CON:x/y/z/h/name/option/ALTn/m/p/q				
                                     ^^^ 
    this works.
    
    The "alt" window option helped me customize my environment just a
    little better.  The problem is that I cannot find this mentioned
    anywhere in, "Using the System Software", which was distributed with my
    v2.04 upgrade.  There are other window commands, which I cannot
    remember, that I have not seen documented anywhere.  What other
    features of the OS am I missing out on?  If I need to RT*MA (read the,
    uh, manual again) let me know where.
