Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

Displaying binary files
 
If you display a binary file or a file created by a program, you may see
strange characters on the screen, including formfeed characters and
escape-sequence symbols. These characters represent control codes used in
the binary file. In general, you should avoid using the TYPE command to
display binary files.
