When I use certain programs to check file sizes and other file
information I sometimes get files called prn, com1, com2, com3, com4,
lpt1, lpt2, or lpt3 in the listing in all subdirectories. I have heard
that there is an undocumented option that can be added to config.sys
that will cause these devices to only appear in the subdirectory /dev.
Has anyone else heard of this option? If so can someone please email
the imformation about the option to me? Does using this option cause
any problems?
Thanks for all responses.
