Synopsis
The source code of MS-DOS is both secret and copyright-protected, so, as a Windows and DOS programmer, you can't study the code and figure out how this operating system works. If you could study the code, you would be able to optimize your Windows and DOS programs. Now there's Dissecting DOS, the first book to take programmers on a fantastic voyage through the code-level guts of MS-DOS. The book features the complete source code for the DOS work-alike operating system RxDOS, which emulates and parallels the commercial system. Dissecting DOS explains the architecture, command structure, and operation of DOS and uses the work-alike RxDOS to illustrate the source code controlling vital DOS actions, such as processing function calls, file redirection, disk compression, memory management and device drivers. Dissecting DOS reveals the details of DOS: *file processing *memory allocation *process management *COMMAND.COM functions *device redirection *low level file allocation table (FAT) architecture.The book features extensive innovative techniques and technical insights for Windows and DOS programmers, such as how your program can usurp the MS-DOS COMMAND.COM component and other functions to achieve optimum customization. The accompanying disk includes the entire source code for the MS-DOS workalike RxDOS. Readers can use actual RxDOS source code in their own programs to emulate DOS functions and features. Dissecting DOS reveals the inner secrets of MS-DOS that every PC programmer needs to know. 020162687XB04062001
Der Autor über sein Buch
Dissecting DOS updates available
Some systems had trouble booting the copy of RxDOS provided with the book. It depended on your machine and in the last two years I have only received about a dozen requests for updates, incuding those related to this problem.

RxDOS is licensed commercially which is a big incentive for me to keep it up to date and very current.
At any rate write to me at mikep@rxdos.com

Thank you and drop me a line

After my first review posted, I am very pleased to say that the author (Mike Padanoffsky) contacted me, and was *Extremely* helpful in fixing *any* complaints that I may have had on his book / software. And it chagrins me to say, that the retractant message that I thought I had posted never went up. So I shall do so again. The original one went sorta like this... "This book, barring a minor bug in one of the earlier editions is in my own opinion one of the *very* best books on re-entrant assembly code and on operating systems. In fact, I liked the OS well enough that I use it on a daily basis on my notebook. For any inquiring programmers, if you want to know HOW to write your own OS, this is one of the *most* essential books to have at your side. I cannot stress enough how well it is written and supported. Words just doesn't seem to do it justice." I am also reminded of the fact, that if it weren't for authors like Mike, some of us programmers would still be scratching our heads, saying "Now, how do I do this one???"
Great book. buy it. I highly recommend it... from one programmer to another.

Dissecting DOS provides the source code to DOS(actually RxDOS), a great explanation of the internals, and a look at how great reentrant ASM (assembly language) code is written. Enjoy !

This book has everything except working software. The author has decided that he'd make a small bug so you can't compile the bootsector software, and the bootsector that the software writes, isn't bootable. Mr. PODANOFFSKY, if you read this, I appreciate, as other OS programmers do, your work in this field, but the fact that you put a bug in the code, and skip over the explaination on the bootsector code, shows a lack of trust / belief that we (other programmers) are even computer literate. Thank you but I think that I can decide what will, and what will not damage up my hard drive, and if it does, I think I can fix it... hello, it's called "Sys.Com" -- to any perspective buyers of this book, wait until it's at the library or until the author writes the second edition, and fixes the bug, so that this book is actuallty useful.
