I just recently noticed that NWCDEX wasn't working properly for me.
I was trying to use a couple of DOS audio cd players and the
system kept locking up. After a number of reboots and config settings
to aid in troubleshooting I went back to MSCDEX and had no problems.
Not sure what the problem was exactly with NWCDEX.

Did you send these as attachments? All I got was the config.sys and at
the bottom of the mail was a message from Juno telling me that
the attachment couldn't be included. It also says I need to download
the new version with attachment features and that they are holding
on to my attachments somewhere.
Heh, on the Juno_Accmail list they call it a ransom note. :-)
Pretty silly since the new versions only work with Win95.
Reckon I better resubscribe to the list using another account.

For curiosity's sake, what do all the /P parms do?
