- The following is a fix for the COMMAND.COM supplied with PC-DOS 3.00
- on the IBM PC/AT. This version of COMMAND.COM does not correctly scan
- multiple environment variable references (such as %PROMPT%) in a
- single line of a .BAT file. Following is a sequence of DEBUG commands
- which, when applied to COMMAND.COM will fix this problem. It also
- changes the word "DOS" in the DOS signon line to "dos" so people will
- know it's been patched.
-
- Make sure your copy of COMMAND.COM has the size, date, and time shown
- here. If not, DO NOT USE THIS PATCH!!!!
