It was thus said that the Great Sellam Ismail once stated:
The MS-DOS ASSIGN command let you assign a drive letter for a drive, sort
of like an alias.
I think the syntax was:
ASSIGN D: C:
Meaning D: would be the equivalent of C:
You could also assign a directory to a drive letter. I too, don't
remember the syntax, but using Sellam's example up there, you could do:
ASSIGN D: C:\APPS\WP50\DOCUMENT
I found that very useful at a previous job (on topic---it was 10 years ago
8-) and set up a few drive letters for commonly used subdirectories.
