 >> Sure, I do it all the time under WinXP SP3 32-bit, might even work

 AP { I know that there was a way to get the command.com hook to work in XP,
 AP { but with 7, at least on my system, there's no way to do a
 AP { control/enter and make it full screen again.

Ctrl+Enter doesn't work in a VM (as I use) either.

 AP { I also liked the 4DOS way of putting descriptions in the directory,
 AP { however not sure how 4DOS would handle the long file names.

That's mainly what I use it for, updating Descriptions! When using Describe 
command, put /D in front of quoted description for LFNs (or just allways)

 AP { I know I can do it in a virtual machine, but it would run so slow why

Most of my production apps and all development are done in my WinXP VM which is 
spiffy most of the time. :) You need a faster machine! My neighbor just bought 
an open box Dell desktop for under $300 from Best Buy {chuckle} with 8GB RAM, 
1TB drive, AMD quad-core, etc. though it came with Win 10. I can't run Win10 on 
my homebrew, too many hardware unsupported errors but I prefer 7 anyway!
