How could the bbs crowd do ansi music once ansi.sys were gone?
ansi.sys was the standard all speech synthesizers on dos systems
mastered first and for our community has the widest support.  I suppose
ansi.com could be used in a pinch if my ansi.sys files were gone or
command.com didn't  ofer support for it to take care of software
like nswp which manages disks nicely and nethack actually needs something
more than ansi.sys to run since ansi.sys can't redefine function keys
in nethack.  Generally though screen emulators aren't
normally found in command.com because it would probably have to be
called command.exe before too much longer.
