Hi,
  I am now in the position where I need to write two shells for a DOS
environment.  One shell will have several capabilities, whereas the other
limits ability to such functions as ls, cd, and pwd, (or the DOS equivalents).

  What I am wondering is whether or not others have tried to write shells for
DOS, and if so, some advice or problems, etc., that they would like to share
with me.  Even sample code would be greatly appreciated.  

  If you can help me out, please let me know by writing to the following 
addresses:	

  devolder@matt.ksu.ksu.edu
  devolder@ksuvm.ksu.edu

thanks in advance,
eric
