 "Out of environment space" is a problem with dos, you must increase the
environment space... this is done by:
SHELL=C:\COMMAND.COM /e:512
(or something like this, but I think this should work)
This command sets the environment space to 512 Bytes...
Increase it if you like, but this consumes low-mem...
No guarantee...
