Ok, first thing I see here is two things. In your autoexec.bat file, move
your path statement down to the end of the file. This will save a bit of
memory. (move the set lines down there too) that way, each time you run a
program, they don't have to load those variables using up space that could
otherwise be put to use. Secondly, you need not put in the;
prompt $p$g
since that's the default on drdos. In fact, I don't like that, so I have
to put in a blank prompt line to eliminate that. :)
As for the config.sys, (do you really need a lastdrive = Z?)
I'd say trim it down to whatever your last drive is plus 2 or three for
comfort. (I.E. if your last drive is letter c, then make your lastdrive
statement e or f.)
That alone will gain you 1 or 2 K of memory with just those couple steps.
Hope this helps.
