OS2's command shell for OS2 sessions is CMD.EXE, the shell for Virtual DOS sessions is COMMAND.COM. If you run the install for 4os2 it will edit the config.sys and place itself in there exactly as I outlined. I have been using 4os2 and 4dos as my shells in OS2 for several years. *** Warning *** Some install systems will not work correctly with 4os2 in as the command processor. It seems to be a conflict with certain rexx calls and the way the system starts up with locked files etc... Dave Calafrancesco, Team OS/2 dave@drakkar.mhv.net ...
