 > Any tips how to expand.exe a "set" of file{s) in MS-DOS 6.22?
   I believe I used to copy them all to c:\dos and then use:

expand *.*

or something like:

for %%i in (*.??_) do expand %%i

Then del *.??_

if you have any files that end in a _ and the extension isn't 3 characters,
expand them too
