F-N Shortcuts in the Windows' Command Prompt

Question

Hi,

Where can I get some explanations on what F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7,F8,F9,F10,F11 and F12 do in the Windows' Command Prompt?

Are there some other useful shortcuts for Windows' Command Prompt?

Thanks,

These are the function keys used by the old MS-DOS DosKey command. They are now built into Windows NT's command interpeter. Go to Start > Help and Support and search for DosKey.
