In case it wasn't obvious, I meant that running a single DJGPP app (not nested) will indeed allow you to use longer cmdlines. A quick grep in FreeCOM sources does show some support for this. IIRC, this workaround was used back in Win9x (but sadly doesn't work under XP's NTVDM). (quoting "com084/source/freecom/CHANGED"): " v0.84pre2 add: exec sets CMDLINE if command-line is longer than 125 characters; if setting CMDLINE fails, so does exec. (All DJGPP-compiled apps and various others support CMDLINE for passing parameters) " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
