I'm using bash for DOS as my standard shell (no COMMAND.COM
anymore! :-).  However I have some problems with executing DJGPP
2.00 compiled programs.

First, normal DJGPP compilation (`gcc prog.c -o prog' or simply
`make prog') leaves two executable files: `prog' and `prog.exe'.
Then if I type `prog' the following will appear:

go32/v1: cannot find v1's go32.exe

(this is `go32-v2.exe' message).  I have to type `prog.exe' to run
my program.

Second, the computer hangs sometimes.  This usually happens when I
execute `go32-v2 prog ; go32-v2' two or more times.  

Third problem shows when I try to execute DOS `.bat' file,
especially the one which add new variables to DOS environment
(`out of environment space' message).  I tried to fix it with
`export COMSPEC="c:\command.com /e:2048"', but it doesn't work.  

Any suggestions?

TIA,
