Hi, with 4DOS301A the following batch file produces the expected output, but with 4DOS302 not! There must be a "black hole"? :-) Batch File (b.btm) : --------------------------------------- : Test input function via IO redirection : --------------------------------------- @echo off cls : LOOP input %%MSG if "%MSG" == "" quit echo %MSG goto LOOP : --------------------------------------- I have created this test file (list.txt): word-01 word-02 word-03 word-04 word-05 word-06 word-07 word-08 word-09 word-10 I have booted MSDOS-3.2 and started the "old" 4dos version on a AT286. The 4DOS command "ver" shows this line: 4DOS 3.01a DOS 3.30 This following (4DOS) command types the test file on the screen: C:>b < list.txt The output ist ok. I have rebooted the system and started the "new" 4dos version. The 4DOS command "ver" shows this line: 4DOS 3.02 DOS 3.30 Now the same (4DOS) command: C:>b < list.txt prints word-01 and word-03 only! Where are the other words (lines)??? :-) Greetings Waldemar -- [ Waldemar Kebsch, Nixdorf Computer AG, Dep.: PSD-C-63, Pontanusstrasse 55, ] [ 4790 Paderborn, Federal Republic of Germany, Tel.: [nat]-5251-14-6151 ] [ Usenet: (USA) kebsch.pad@nixdorf.com, Eunet: kebsch.pad@nixdorf.de ]
