Wrong again. The names of the MS-DOS hidden files seem to vary among OEM's. Some use IO.SYS and MSDOS>SYS; others, perhaps for aping IBM more completely, use IBMBIO.COM and IBMDOS.COM. Take a look, for instance, at EPSON MS-DOS; they use the IBM conventions for hidden files. -- l\ /l ' _ Mike Schuster ...!cmcl2!panix!schuster l \/ l l l/ (_ NY Public Access CIS:70346,1745 l l l l\ (_ UNIX Systems MCI Mail,GEnie:MSCHUSTER
