It's "/inputrc" (i.e. must be in the root directory of the current 
drive).  Not too convenient, but DOS leaves few choices.  You will have 
to make sure the file is in Unix text format, because the current code 
wants the value returned by `read' to be the same as the size of file 
reported by `stat'.  Until that bug is fixed (probably in the next 
release), run the file through `dtou' each time you edit it.  (If you 
don't, the file will be silently ignored.)
