For those of us that are SURE of never needing command.com, you're right.
Discard any of the %'s and in MOST cases it will still work.

That's all very well, but you're not the only one to reckon with, are you?
I was just considering the person asking for assistance, and since I've
found out that sometimes even *I* need to skip 4Dos, I just felt it to be a
usefull addition.
