Click once on your shell icon to select it.  Now click under "File" and
then "properties."  You will see that it is selected to run command.com...
change this to a 4dos.pif file.  Now create the 4dos.pif file, running
4dos.com -- pass it the /v parameter to make certain memory is handled
correctly.  You're in the 4dos-shell business.

No problem.  That's what this net is for, isn't it?
