Subject: Command.com patches



There have been patches to command.com submitted to info-ibmpc which turn echo
off during batch files and increase the environment to 2k from 128 bytes.  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.
