<The purpose of SHARE is to provide ancient FCB support on large-volume hard <drives. Since few if any programs use FCBs these days, you can probably get <along without it (unless you are running an old program, designed to run under <DOS 1.1, in a DOS window). Such as the COMP (FILECOMP?) compare command that comes with MSDOS. Rather than running SHARE, one can always save memory & keep some protections in place by using my .sig instead. -- MLORD@BNR.CA Ottawa, Ontario *** Personal views only *** begin 644 NOTSHARE.COM ; Free MS-DOS utility - use instead of SHARE.EXE MZQ.0@/P/=`J`_!9T!2[_+H``L/_/+HX&+`"T2<TAO@,!OX0`N1(`C,B.P/.DS <^K@A-<TAB1Z``(P&@@"ZA`"X(27-(?NZE@#-)P#-5 `` end
