DOS ain't dead

loading of command.com (Users)

There is an almost infinite realm open to creative types.

My Windows 98/DOS 7 config.sys has (inside its main [MENU] configuration) :

SET COMSPEC=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM
SHELL=C:\WINDOWS\WIN.COM

... and no autoexec.bat is used or needed.


Having the "DOS" shell to be win.com like this has its advantages and small drawbacks too. I happen to like this way. :=)
