If so, I'd be interested in talking to you. In the meantime, here is all the stuff that I've found to be useful: o There is a DEV directory, but you can't cd into it. Try: copy /dev/con /dev/prn You can't dir it either. Oh well. o There are two more commands you can put in your command file that aren't documented. AVAILDEV and SWITCHAR. I don't know how to use AVAIlDEV, but if you say ``switchar=-'' in your config.sys, then you will have path name separators changed to / and switch chars changed to -. __________________________ Jordan Bortz (..decvax!cbosgd!mddc!jordan)
