How to increase environment space in DOS?

1.  Use the /E switch in the SHELL= statement in config.sys.
2.  Run COMMAND.COM from a .PIF file, and specify a /E switch as part
   of the command line.  (I have not tested this, can someone verify?)
3.  Use 4DOS, a replacement for COMMAND.COM.  4DOS has a /E switch.
