Not them, really:
About 4DOS24H2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4DOS24H2.COM is a critical error handler to replace the one
build into the otherwise excellent 4DOS command interpreter.
The critical error handler is the piece of code displaying
the notorious "Abort, Retry, Ignore" message when you have
forgotten to put a disk in the disk drive. Due to the nice
behaviour of 4DOS it is possible to replace this piece of
code with an external handler.
4DOS.COM, the COMMAND.COM replacement, is written by Rex Conn
and sold by JP Software, while 4DOS24H2.COM is a separate
freeware program written by Niels Jensen.

BTW, I actually tested it, and the "Another copy running" test
doesn't actually work in 6.6c for me, altho it does with 6.6b.
