Wait... After installing when you open the program you will get a DOS based interface.
Now suppose you want to run Turbo C which is in you D:\TC . You need to mount this folder as
as virtual drive i.e. d, for that write this command mount d d:\tc. If succeeded it will display a
message : Drive D is mounted as Local Directory D:\TC.
It's all done. Just type D: ad press enter on the prompt and it will change the drive to virtual drive
as D:>. Now you have to imagine your current directory as d:\tc, not d: ad you can do all work you
need to to on this current directory.
