It is really useful! At any rate, if you wish, I shall upload it to the archive of your choice, or mail it to you, UUENCODED - it is easier, though, if you have anonymous FTP! Just let me know. I'll upload it when I get your message. If anybody else wants it, I guess I'll put it up for anon ftp at max.physics.sunysb.edu, 129.49.21.100 (I believe?), in the receive directory. Boot.sys, and the associated files, lets you select up to 9 configurations of your system, in both config.sys && autoexec.bat (you use the .sys program, which sets up the menu, in your config.sys, and then, if you want to also set up options in your autoexec, you run the boot.com program, for the errorlevel) > >-- >Jason Merrill jmerrill@jarthur.claremont.edu --Titus -- "Never put off until tomorrow, that which can be done the day after tomorrow" -- C.
