While reading the DOS 5.0 manual I read something about device=setver.exe or
something similar b4 you can use setver. Either that or setver isn't on your
path. You might also want to use SETVER mytsr.EXE 3.30 or whatever. The
extension might be necessary (probably is) I will get around to solving these
problems for myself when I install 5.0 after exams.
