Message-ID: <133297@sun.Eng.Sun.COM> Date: 22 Mar 90 02:30:16 GMT Sender: news@sun.Eng.Sun.COM Reply-To: hesed@sun.Eng (Michael Brumm) Distribution: usa Organization: Sun Microsystems, Mountain View Lines: 8 I'm looking for a way to simulate the DOS prompt without shelling to DOS. Is there a way to display the DOS prompt (including paths and ansi.sys codes) without exiting a program? If not, I'd at least like to gain access to the current path (minus ansi escape codes). Thanks for your comments! -mike
