Ah ha... got the 1st problem fixed by editing dillo.bat to point
everything to drive C: instead of drive E:

Now font_factor does indeed change the font sizes.

But... this brings-up another point.

In dillo.bat the ENV variable TEMP is set to C:\DILLODOS

Since many DOS programs save temporary files into the dir
pointed to by $TEMP$ ... after running DilloDOS those other DOS programs
will be putting their temp files into C:\DILLODOS instead of into C:\TEMP

Soooo.... I add one more line at the bottom of dillo.bat
to reset the temp dir back to c:\temp

@echo off
rem set screen resolution to 800x600 16 bit
set NANOSCR=1024 768 565
set WATTCP.CFG=c:\DILLODOS\ETC
set ETC=c:\ETC
set HOME=c:\DILLODOS
rem set dillodos as the current directory
set TEMP=c:\DILLODOS
rem start dillo from the bin directory and allow for command line options
bin\dillo.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 >DEBUG.TXT
set temp=c:\temp
