Similarly, Word Perfect 5.0 chokes on the directory separator too - I had
to escape the '\' though, to call WP from any directory:
	alias wp="\\wp50\\wp"

unrelated query:  the Turbo C TSR help utility, 'THELP.EXE', disappears
when run by init - it also takes up too much ram than advertised when
started by the toolkit.  I've received mail on  compuslave from others
that have experienced the same problem.  Any reason as to why this
happens, Gerry?

When I boot up with command.com as my interpreter, and then start up
/bin/sh, the same amount of ram is used as when /bin/sh is the startup
shell, about 175 KB.  Why is that?
