Pardon me: [brand new command prompt from the WinXP command prompt button] Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. C:\Documents and Settings\Vivien>command Microsoft(R) Windows DOS (C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1990-2001. C:\DOCUME~1\VIVIEN> C:\DOCUME~1\VIVIEN> It looks to me like you have cmd.exe, which is a 32-bit Windoze-native etc shell, and then you have command.com which is used to run legacy DOS stuff. Command.com feels a _lot_ slower to me, too. Vivien -- Vivien M. [email protected] Assistant System Administrator Dynamic DNS Network Services http://www.dyndns.org/
