Ok, I've kept my mouth shut till now.  Will someone PLEASE explain
what is wrong with just using 4Dos???  It loads in a command
processor, and runs a batch file for all those neat ram-res programs
that people love.  It even has more features than Command.com.  It's
not a general solution, but is very practical.  It does everything
that I want it to, and it seems better than the suggestions that have
been floating around.  If you don't like it fine, but please remember
it is an option before saying that the only/best solution is in OS2
etc...
