Re: Link to Manual Apple II Dos - Apple II " The DOS Manual - Disk Operating System "



Micheal ,

  sorry.  I guess my inexperience at desctiption.
  What would be the best way to post these Apple DOS manuals online.
  They were previously posted as pdf files for download.
  I have the scans so I can do the reposts as you advise .

                                thank you
