Even when using "/MSG /P"? So what is the implication, that there's a memory leak in FreeCOM somewhere? I wouldn't be too surprised. > and Freecom 0.80 has some issues (2GB max shown on HD, OGN not recognized) Testing an old release for comparison? Why not test 0.82pl3 from SF.net? https://sourceforge.net/projects/freedos/files/FreeCOM/082pl3%20%28use%20xmsswap%20for%20386%2B%20PC%29/ But yes, FreeCOM has various bugs and needs to be cleaned up and fixed (eventually), but so far nobody has stepped up to do it. > I discovered one other alternative that seems to be working - I set a > %config% variable (SET WPSHELL=C:\DP23\SHELL.EXE), You mean "SET" within FDCONFIG.SYS?? > then %WPSHELL% /C; > following that I execute a batch file with the same command and the shell > loads as it should and on exit all my path variables are intact with no > strings error messages. So "all my path variables are intact" means there is probably a memory corruption issue somewhere?? > On Mon, May 23, 2016 at 5:21 PM, Rugxulo <rugx...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> On Mon, May 23, 2016 at 4:18 PM, Don Flowers <donr...@gmail.com> wrote: >> > >> > So /MSG seems to work, more testing needed to be sure, What does this >> > switch >> > do, (besides help me of course)? >> >> http://help.fdos.org/en/hhstndrd/base/command.htm >> >> "/MSG Stores all error messages in memory (requires /P as well)." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?
