ears if you cant manage to grasp that that was said in a
PARTICULAR context was saying absolutely NOTHING
about the use of the dos prompt in OTHER situations.

And lets not try to put a spin on what I have
said, I never 'admitted' that, I have said that
all along. Trivial to prove using deja.

Bet you wont on that claim you made about me
changing my position on the use of the dos prompt.
