Hi List !
I've seemed to notice Command.com locates its master environment block at the
top of conventional memory, just under the video (and under a BIOS defined
extended bios data aka EBDA, if any).
Is this behaviour user-controllable with some switch while loading FreeCOM ? Or
otherwise,
That's funny, because I thought that the master environment was controlled
by the kernel.sys?
Maybe they can add a switch that forces the environment be loaded in
upper ram instead of conventional?

obviously not as it's size is controlled by '/E:512'

'they' could do nearly everything

The why has been explained. In addition, under /some but not all/ BIOSes,
it seems the presence of a DOS
So command.com controller the allocating of dos env ?
I still always thought it was a kernel level thing , as the way I coded
it in nxbio.sys
That reminds me that I need to make a dosenv.asm

I misspoke. It's more correct to say that placing it at the top of
I just wrote a dosenv.asm for nxbio I'll write it up to a int21 call so
user app and resize dos environment at will.
