a need occasionally to boot into command prompt with a floppy into Win95

message.  What I need is the switch to add to my set command.com line to

increase the environment space.  My memory is failing!!!

Sorry Doug. As far as I know, the "set" command to change the
environment size will not work in anything but your "config.sys" file. I
believe the default size is 160 bytes but can be increased to 32,768
bytes.

For example, if you wanted to increase the environment size to 1,600
bytes, the line in config.sys would read:

    shell=command.com /p /e:1600

There are spaces before both slashes. The "/p" specifies that the shell
program is to be permanent while you are in DOS.

Hope this is helpful.
