                                   DEVICE
             Allows MS-DOS to load and utilize a device driver
         See also <ANSI.SYS> <DISPLAY.SYS> <DRIVER.SYS> <KEYBOARD.SYS>
                                  <VDISK>

COMMAND TYPE: System Configuration      VERSION: 2.0 and up

USE: DEVICE = [d:][path]filename [arguments]

d: path filename specifies the file to use as a device driver.

All DEVICE drivers must be included in the <CONFIG.SYS> file to operate
properly.  Any arguments needed by the individual drivers are
specified following the filename.  These are not commands which are
available at the DOS level.

The following device drivers are standard:

<ANSI.SYS>      gives screen control using ansi escape sequences
<DISPLAY.SYS>   use code page switching on EGA, LCD and PS/2 displays
<DRIVER.SYS>    create logical DOS devices for extra physical disc
                drives
COUNTRY.SYS     loaded automatically by DOS to handle country specific
                tasks
<PRINTER.SYS>   provides code page switching on printer ports, for
                printers supporting multiple code pages (IBM only)
<KEYBOARD.SYS>  (DOS 4.x) loaded by DOS to handle country specific
                keyboard interface
VDISK.SYS       (DOS 2.x,3.x) Allows you to use part of memory as a
                virtual disk drive.
RAMDRIVE.SYS    (DOS 4.x) replaces VDISK.SYS for DOS 4
SMARTDRV.SYS    (DOS 4.x) disk cache program to store recently used disc
                sectors in memory for faster access
EMM386.SYS      (DOS 4.x) Allows 80386 machines with extended memory to
                emulate expanded memory (LIM EMS 4.0)
HIMEM.SYS       (DOS 4.x) Extended memory (XMS 2.0) driver to allow
                80286/80386 based machines to access extended memory
XMA2EMS.SYS     (DOS 4.x) Expanded memory manager
