I just got a Zenith 158 PC at work. It came with MS-DOS 3.1. Does anyone know if this corresponds to PC-DOS 3.1 or 3.2? It has a program called SHARE so I think it may be 3.2. The reason I ask is that I began to do the patches to COMMAND.COM to turn echo off as a default and did not get the expected values while using DEBUG. Needless to say, I did not go ahead and make the changes because who knows what would have happened? Does anyone have the patch for this version of DOS? I want to turn echo off during batch files and during the AUTOEXEC.BAT. I notice that ECHO prints a blank line if the batch file has a couple of blank lines after the word ECHO, so I don't need a patch for this. Better yet, is there an *ALGORITHM* for finding where the change needs to be made and what to change and to what? Such a thing would be nice to work for all versions. Thanks much.
