Hi Paul

 PE> EMX INDENT FRED.C

No problems there. The exact command line is



 indent io2.c



With no emx.exe available, indent terminates with "emx.exe not

found". With emx.exe in the same dir, indent shows its help info

and doesn't alter the target file. With emx.exe removed,

Quarterdeck's QDPMI.SYS loaded, and rsx.exe from DPMIGCC5.ZIP

renamed to emx.exe and placed in the same directory, indent shows

its help info and doesn't alter the target file.

 RM> why? it just looks like another emx animal



 PE> I am surprised you have a VCPI environment.  You need DPMI to use in a DPMI

 PE> environment.  BFN.  Paul.



What's VCPI?



Do you actually have a real Dos environment to test this in?



Just to remove any confusion, I'm using indent.exe 94178 bytes

dated 04-05-96 from indentpe.zip, same date, timestamped 50 seconds

later than the exe.



Cheers
