Not entirely on topic here, but at least it's not spam. :) This is the
only DOS list I read, and I know some of you are involved with FreeDOS.

I've looked through the FreeDOS documentation (fd-doc.sourceforge.net),
but I cannot find anything explaining the syntax for boot menus in
config.sys. They look similar (I'm looking at the example in the boot
disk image) to DR-DOS.

Are they limited to numeric single-character choices? I want to make a
menu with more than 10 choices.

How can I specify some common commands? Is there something similar to
the "include=[block]" syntax in MS-DOS?

Thanks for your help,
