Hi Jasen,

 RB>> The alias CALC = KEYSTACK "CALC
%{at}comma[%{at}EVAL[%&]]" works under
 RB>> 4DOS, but under 4NT I don't get a result. The alias should be

What do you use?

 JB> :: (RECALC.BTM)
 JB> {at}echo off
 JB> setlocal
 JB> on break quit
 JB> on error quit
 JB> set calc=%{at}comma[%{at}eval[%&]]
 JB> eset calc
 JB> %0 %calc

No, unfortunately this doesn't work. Maybe there's somebody else who has an
idea. Or are we the only ones here?

Thanks and regards from Germany, Ralf
