Hi Rob,
I don't know 'nix or Freedos.
I just know that looks nothing like what
I get when I type PATH at the prompt and
press ENTER. That looks to me like the
path to his files in his "bin" directory.
Does Freedos have a different way of
displaying the path ?

Eric,
I would say that is his PATH, if he is using FreeDOS.
FreeDOS has a fair bit of 'nix influence.

Hi Lester,
I learned that my path should always
include:
1. The root directory of my boot drive which is
always C: in all my computers.
2. The directory where all my DOS commands/utilities
are stored.
3. The Arachne main directory if I am running Arachne.
So that would be: path= c:\;c:dos;d:\arachne in my case.
I may also sometimes add other directories if they
contain programs/files that I want global access to.
I don't know your computer setup so I can't really
comment on your path.......except......... I am surprized
that I don't see the Arachne main directory included.
In fact, what you show below doesn't even look like
your path. Your path is the line returned when you
type PATH at a DOS prompt and press ENTER.

Eric: If you put CDA.BAT in your PATH, then you can use it from
the
command prompt when you're in DOS. There are many times that I
want
to return to my Arachne main directory and do something before I
start up Arachne.
Might be a good idea, I put it there. Btw, my path is:
d:\fdos\bin
