I am using a Packet Radio program (TNOS) that was originally written
to run on Linux and has now been compiled to run using DJGPP.

It runs fine with one problem that has me baffled.

When using the DIR or LS command when executing the program in DOS
thes commands work ok.

When using these commands in the DOS BOX in Win95, if executed in the
directory where the executable program resides, the program crashes
with a SIGSERV error.

When these commands are executed from a SUB-directory under the
executable program they work fine.

I have the source code and Vsn 2 of the compiler.

Could someone tell me if the problem is likely to be the way the
program has been written OR has the program been compiled with some
old libary/include files that were suitable for DOS operation and not
fully compatible for Win95.

Many Thanks ...... Terry
