A better idea: get the PICNIX package for the PC (available on many FTP
sites).  It has many UN*X equivalents such as ls, rm, cp, mv, du, df, more,
cat, head, tail, etc.  And these programs will accept slashes in filenames
(in fact, they'll abort if you _don't_ use slashes).
BTW, I'd recommend you switch to 4DOS anyway since it is an excellent
replacement for COMMAND.COM.
