FreeDOS:
C:\>truename EMMXXXX0
C:/EMMXXXX0
C:\>ver
FreeCom version 0.83 Beta 32 [Dec 03 2001]
I used the "command.com" from the latest FreeDOS "base1" install disk from
their server.
The "comcom.com" which came with DOSEMU and all the tools based on
"generic.com" make my dosemu go into an endless loop or simply quit. They
work on a friend's computer without problems and I haven't investigated in
this further yet.
MS-DOS:
C:\>truename EMMXXXX0
C:/EMMXXXX0
C:\>ver
MS-DOS Version 6.22

Ok.
By the way, that program gives me a headache. It even breaks with MS-DOS under
vmware. With another error, of course.
