Not everyone limited themselves to 64K on their Apple IIs. >And, as much as I joke about MS-DOG, I mean DOS, it is far superior >to DOS 3.3 or ProDOS. Come on, ProDOS doesn't even have a 'type' or >'more' command the last time I looked. MS-DOS doesn't have a 'type' or 'more' command either. Of course, COMMAND.COM does, and it's bundled with it. Apple doesn't bundle a traditional command-line interpreter with ProDOS, but several are available both commercially and as Shareware. They *do* have available most things you'd expect after using MS-DOS's COMMAND.COM, and maybe some stuff you wouldn't. --David A. Lyons a.k.a.
