[blah]

I suggest you make a separate subdirectory for all the DOS stuff.
THat way its all together and can be accessed using an appropriate
path.

Just in case some of you don't know,

	mkdir \dos
	copy  \dos
	path \dos;

Another suggestion:  Some older programs don't allow data files to be
in separate subdirectories (they don't know about subdirectories).
Personally, I like to keep the programs and data files separate.  One
way to do this is to use the data files on diskette, and copy them to
a sub-dir later when you're done.  This way you make a backup copy
too.  (This won't work for huge files that won't fit on the
diskettes.)
