there were a few differences between 4dos v4.0 and ndos v6.0.  4dos had
everything ndos had and more (at least, i couldn't find anything that ndos
had and 4dos didn't).  4dos had a "cdpath" env var that helps you when
changing directories.  and also has dir colorization.

Granted, nothing earth-shattering, but both of these things are kinda nice
once you get used to useing them>
