You can also use the dos ansi.sys capability to redefine the
character transmitted by the keyboard when you hit / or \.  This
can be done by echoing the proper ESC sequence in autoexec.  Since
this is just redefining the keyboard signal, it does not effect programs
that utilitze the original sequence.  I know this works under MSDOS 3.1.
See page G-10 of the MSDOS 3.1 manual.
