I was studying a FreeDos bootable floppy relating to NTFS4dos.exe downloaded 
from Avaira at 
http://www.avira.com/en/products/productdetail.php?id_prd=23&section=1
 
I have some questions regarding the CONFIG.SYS file to said floppy
 
1)  The very first entry is:   
 
             !SWITCHES=/E
 
I don't see this entry listed in the FreeDos help file as a Config.sys command 
- what is it / what does it do ??
 
2)  Another item: I alter the colormenu entry to 
 
             colormenu=15,9
 
 and now the menu keeps blinking until you select an item
 
In the Autoexect.bat file there is the following entry
 
             @if "%ramd%"=="" goto (label)
 
how is @if different from if  ???  Does @if equate to If not  ???
 
Over all, what is this command saying ???
 
Thank you in advance for your help
 
Howard
