Miscellaneous Tweaks - Doubling Commands

In a recent tip we showed you how to run more than one program on a single MS-DOS command prompt line. This time, let's look at running more than one MS-DOS command on a line. Let's say that you'd like to run CHKDSK and then run MEM. Type at the command prompt:

chkdsk & mem

and press Enter. This will run CHKDSK and then run MEM when CHKDSK finishes.
