However, if you use 4DOS, it is possible to increase the environment size without any real difficulty.

In later versions of DOS (3.X and above), add a line to your CONFIG.SYS: SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /P /E:384 This example assumes COMMAND.COM is in your root, and that you want 384 bytes of environment space (default is 160).
