	Sorry, but am I missing something somewhere??

There was a time, when, back then, in order to increase the environment
size of command.com you included the line..

SHELL=[drive]:\[path]COMMAND.COM /P /E:[size]

in your config.sys????

I use the above line (DOS 3.3) in my config.sys to set the environment
size to 512 bytes, and believe me, I need them all!!!
