I don't know if there is something wrong with your program, but this 4DOS
error rings a bell with me: You wouldn't happen to be running 4dos 5.0,
*revision D*, by any chance ? ('ver /r' will tell you).
Rev. D had a bug, that produced this error at times. It seems to have gone
away in rev. E, which came out last week. (Avail. from ftp.std.com, in
/vendors/jpsoft/4dos/4d50e.zip).
One way of provoking the bug was:
- start a second copy of 4dos
- do a 'ver /r' command
- 'exit'
