For users of 4DOS, the COMMAND.COM replacement available as shareware
from J. P. Software: Here are some replies to questions about 4DOS
posted on this newsgroup. I mailed the 4DOS articles from this group
to my cousin, Tom Rawson, who is one of the creators of 4DOS. The
e-mail address is his address on Compuserve.
The "unknown parameter /Z" messages (Kauto Huopio). This is
almost certainly due to using 4DOS.COM from version 2.2 with
4DOS286.EXE or 4DOS88.EXE from version 3.0 or later. If so there
will be all kinds of other troubles as well, the old copies of
4DOS.COM should be deleted!
The problem with "cd /foo/bar" only changing to directory "foo"
and ignoring the "/bar" (from Chris Faylor) is fixed in 4DOS
version 3.01.
The problem with using dashes on the 4DOS command line (Richard
Brittain), eg "4dos -c command", is fixed in version 3.01.
