With DOS 3.2 I used a program called Setpath.exe.This program had one create a an ASCII file that only had the path in it and mine was about 300 bytes.

You can also get the program for $ 15.00 from: Covici Computer Systems 220 Dry Mill Road SW APT H Leesburg, VA 22075 --- ~ DeLuxe 1.11 #1435 jack.lupic@canremote.uucp
