Well, my solution was simpler.  I just put the following in my autoexec.bat:

command /c loadhi whatever.ext 

Works fine for me.  If you are having problems with devicehigh in your
config.sys, then put the shell=c:\4dos etc line after your devicehigh
statements.  That way, 4dos will get loaded after your devices.
