Am I the only one that is appalled by the color schemes the DOS 5 shell
sticks you with? I can't stand a bright white background, and the only
three color selections which don't have one are all monochrome (two of
which have a gray background and the third is dim gray on black--yech).
Considering its size, it is lacking in features as well (the PC Tools
shell totals about 50% more program bytes, but has at least five times
as many features). On the other hand, the DOS "shell" I use by far the
most is 4DOS....
