[comp.os.msdos.misc] switch char in DOS 4.0

steckly@mentor.cc.purdue.edu (Mike Steckly) (02/14/91)

	Does anyone know how to change the switch character and directory
seperators in DOS 4.0 to the UNIX defaults?  In <3.3 there are lines in
config.sys and programs to do this for you, but none of these seem to work
on DOS 4.0.

Try switchar.exe in /pc/ts/tsutld18.arc.  No guarantees.  Available
from our archives. 

P.S.  Putting "poster" to the Followup-To field leads literally
nowhere.  That method of attempting to get the message mailed to you
directly does not have the effect you desire.  It just confuses the
programs sending the reply.
