This a a quick ref for several older operating systems. The
original source was the OS reference sheets from the June 1983 issue of MICRO
magazine. I'm adding other OS refs from manuals, books and magazines I have in
the library. Hopefully this will help out someone as many older machines are
found without manuals. I have most of the more common operating systems, if you
know the commands for a less common OS I can add to the ref, please
email me.
