I don't know if this is something that is common in the public domain world, but I have written a small command interpreter for DOS that implements some of the features of the Unix shell. The good news: history wildcards I/O redirection pwd, pushd/popd, ls built in fgrep The bad news: no pipes (pseudo-pipes, or whatever) wildcards are of limited utility because of the dos 128 byte parameter limit most of the features are limited (no : modifiers on history, only '*' supported, etc.) Anything it can't figure out what to do with it passes on to dos, so you still have access to built-in dos commands. It was written using u-soft C. If anyone would like a copy, let me know. If there is enough interest, I can post it. I just couldn't take looking at "dir" listings any more. -Doug ihnp4!umich!textset!doug doug%textset@umich.csnet
