Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club! Hi Lester, There's an error in the DOSSHELL.BAT that I just sent you. The fifth line from the end should be: d:\arc\cda.bat instead of: d:\arachne\cda.bat Like below: ******DOSSHELL.BAT********** @echo off set oldpmt=%prompt% set prompt=Type EXIT to return to Arachne$_$p$g if exist ppp.log set prompt=You are still online$_Type EXIT to return to Arachne$_$p$g if (%COMSPEC%)==() goto nocomspec %COMSPEC% /E:1024 goto end :nocomspec COMMAND.COM /E:1024 :end set prompt=%oldpmt% set oldpmt= d:\arc\cda.bat rem %1 rem cd %1system rem cd .. Also, remove the final ":end" since I see there is already a label with that name in the middle of the file. Eric On Wed, 22 Nov 2006 10:12:09 -0500 "Eric S.
