I have noticed that when I run an application in Windows that has a pif
file, a little DOS icon appears immediately before and after I am in the
application.  This happens despite COMSPEC being set to c:\4dos

I searched through all the .ini files, and the associated .txt files
to no avail.  Is command.com being invoked in order to run programs
defined by .pif files?
