Thanks for a very concise and informative page, Freddy!  One caveat --
some folk (like me) also need to put their default environment size
into the "Shell to DOS" registry entry, like this:

(Default)   "C:\command.com /e:1024 /k cd %1"

I find myself using lots of environment variables at times, and the
default environment space just doesn't cut it.
