Subject: some problems

I test version 7.02 currently and have some problems and questions.

1. Unlike Novell DOS 7 (15), the COMMAND.COM seems to don't support the
/MH option really (at least by all my CONFIG and AUTOEXEC configurations
MEM /F cannot find COMMAND in the HMA and if I change /MH to /MU then
the available conventional memory always (if DOS=UMB) becomes to be greater).

2. LONGNAME B3 seems to be incompatible with Windows. I tested this program
under WfW 3.11 (also with /d:c option) using the DOS command from the
Norton Commander loaded in Windows:

copy con "Hello World"

und then I inputed some lines of text. After entering ^Z I found the file
with the true name but the file size was 0 bytes! (If I repeated this test
without Windows, LONGNAME works fine).
