Just type "exit" at the >>> prompt and you will drop back to
Pro/DOS or some funky operating system or other.  It
includes an editor that you can use to change the boot
command files or even create your own.  It's been awhile but
I think the obvious command, i.e., "edit filename", worked.

This is easy.  Just set the auto_restart and auto_boot
flags.
