*** Happy Thanksgiving Line-eater  ***

In the source distribution for the public domain "csh" for
the pc, there is a program "ls.c"  It was written for the 
Aztec C compilier. Being a microsoft man, I made the following
changes,  1) I made sysint into "spawnv", 2) I made rindex into
index and tacked on a simple index routine. which returns the
location position of a string within a string. (apparently aztec
includes both index, and rindex, I didn't know the difference...)

I compiled it useing cl -DMAIN ls.c, and presto ls.exe, the problem
is that the first 2 characters are lost. Thus the directory listing
of a directory containing "Games" shows only "mes"  

Has anyone else made this work properly under the Microsoft C compiler?
I am really sick of the MS-DOS dir command. (especially all of those
capital letters  :-) )

Please mail to me and I will summarize, or post if you think it
is of general interest.
