Several weeks ago I posted a request about how to make COMMAND.COM
work on a RAMDRIVE (for reloading after an application has used all
of the TPA, thus wiping out COMMAND.COM).  I tried
   SET COMSPEC=COMMAND.COM
in an AUTOEXEC.BAT file, but ahd@kendra.wf.ags.com said that the
proper setup had to done through the CONFIG.SYS file and that I
could use a program called SHELL.ASM available from the public
directory at clutx.clarkson.edu.

Unfortunately, when I tried ftp, there was nothing even remotely
resembling any program called SHELL.ASM, and my attempts to contact
ahd have gone unanswered.

Does anyone else have any ideas, either where to obtain SHELL.ASM
(even a photocopy of a paper copy would help) or where to learn
what it should contain?
