[Freedos-user] Reporting two tiny problems

[Lucas Kiwi]

Guys,

   This is probably not very important and maybe other people have already 
reported it and perhaps it has already been corrected, because the FreeDOS I 
have installed on my computer was downloaded some months ago, maybe a year. 
Yet, just in case, I thought I'd better post it, to see if it helps.
   There are two little things that, at least on my laptop computer, seem not 
to be working well when I run FreeDOS:

1) When the CONFIG.SYS menu comes up, no matter how many options the menu has, 
I can only access the first three. I can move up and down with the arrow keys, 
but I can go no further down that to the third option. This happened from the 
moment I first installed it, with the default CONFIG.SYS, but I tried modifying 
it and the same thing happens

2) If I'm running FreeCOM (COMMAND.COM) and I run an application with a command 
line and add a redirection operator, trailing spaces after the command line and 
before the operator will be passed to the application, often causing it to fail 
the purpose of the command. For example, if I type "MYPACK myfile.dat > 
result.txt", I may get a message like "File not found: 'myfile.dat '. Or more 
common, if I enter "EXTRACT thisfile.pak |more", it may come up with "Invalid 
file name: 'thisfile.pak '. Extension should be '.pak' or '.zp'. Things like 
that

   I know I can easily avoid these instances, but in the event that they are 
easy to fix, it's something. Thank you all very much,

                  Lucas
