That is done with the Alias command. 
The problem is, each time you type "LIST" (trying to get the list74a), you
get the list command in 4DOS. Either use the alias command in 4dos to make
"list" point to the program of your choice, or rename the list-plus 
program to LISTP.COM or somthing else like that....
