I assume (I haven't checked) that these patches were for the 2.0 command.com. Are the addresses the same for the 2.1 command.com? Also, does anyone have a patch to make command exit with the correct exit code? Whenever a program is executed via command.com (ex. command -c masm test;) and exits with an error code of 1, command.com exits with a 0 (always). This really makes command useless while running MAKE. advTHANKSance bmarsh -- Bill Marsh Naval Ocean Systems Center San Diego, CA ihnp4 \ MILNET bmarsh@nosc akgua \ UUCP decvax >------------!sdcsvax!noscvax!bmarsh dcdwest / ucbvax / "burning the candle at both ends, twice the light in half the time..."
