[chomp!] OK MS-DOS hackers - here's a tough one. Can anyone tell me what the purpose of the different fields in the ms-dos command table are: It consists of: 1 byte - number char in command name + 1 x byte - the command name 1 byte - 00 or 01, purpose unknown 2 byte - an address/offset of some sort What I am interested in is how to locate the code that is associated with a given command. The short term goal here is to reverse the operation of the /w flag on dir, which causes a 'wide' list across the screen instead of the usual list down the screen. Thanks for the help.
