DS-DOS v.50 DS-DOS is a first file browser of it's kind. This text-based application will allow you to view/copy/move/delete/rename files on your memory card or built-in memory. It also allows you to boot other .nds binaries (users of certain cards may have trouble with this).

  • del allows deleting of files
  • copy allows copying of files
  • move allows moving of files
  • ren allows renaming of files
  • dir displays a list of files and directories in current directory
  • cd change the current directory "\music"
  • lock locks the filesystem, preventing use of del/copy/move/ren
  • ulok unlocks the filesystem allowing use of del/copy/move/ren

To boot any .nds file, just type the filename (myndsfile.nds). If it is currently in a folder, you will have to type the full path unless the folder it resides in is the current working directory (folder\myndsfile.nds).

To use the extra device, you must have a dldi file called "fat3.dldi", which is a renamed dldi file of the other device you want to use. To boot an .nds file on the other device, you would type "fat3:\myndsfile.nds". Copying, renaming, moving, and deleting all work this same way.
