True enough. There are some things that will NOT run in DOSemu. 'Course, some things don't make SENSE either, but that's another thread. Howard, you sound like a happy camper right where you are. Again, if you haven't hit any limitations that are frustrating you with DOS, there's no "need" to do a thing! > This, of course, was a common discovery in the win 9x, NT etc. versions of > cmd -- the kind of emulation of the dos command shell. I like to think of Linux as a viable for alternative for those moving away from DOS (or any other OS) for any reason. It's just nice knowing the "next step" doesn't HAVE to be Windows. - Bob To unsubscribe from SURVPC send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe SURVPC in the body of the message.
