Does anyone >know how to expand the available environment space. I've tried using >the setenv program from Microsoft, but it reports an unrecognizable >command.com. >Please reply by e-mail to kwf@uxv.larc.nasa.gov >thanks in advance. I have received several suggestions, all of which recommend using the /E:XXX option of the COMMAND.COM (using the SHELL= command). Although I am grateful for those individual's interest and help, I failed to mention in my original question that my Zenith version of MS-DOS 3.1 doesn't appear to support the /E option. It is not documented, and when I attempt to use it, no apparent change in environment size occurs. Again, if anyone has any ideas, I'd be grateful for any addition help. thanks again.
