I remember having troubles using 4DOS on config.bat in some (Sed?,
Emacs?) source. I fixed that, first by changing config.bat to 4DOS'
needs. Then, on Eli's advice, I changed the fix to including a file
named config.btm that contains:
command.com /e:1024 /c %0.bat %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

This way, whatever 4DOS version the user has, command.com will be
used. Isn't this safer and easier than fixing config.bat?

Hope this helps, Michel.
