No, I post to the thread and I expect its creator _maybe_
will understand that. But maybe not, from what I see.

Do you really believe, that if someone in the
Internet uses the name 'John Doe' - or, say,
'Paul Johnson' - then really his name is John Doe
(or Paul Johnson)? Because it looks more 'human-like'?

I never make any assumptions like that.

Well in README.TXT there is just 'pointer'
to quite basic config.sys recommended, like this:

device=himem.sys
DOS=HIGH

Of course my config-s use that all the time
(among other settings). Do you mean some other
settings may interfere? The abobe seems not
to be enough - that's why I posted my question.

Anyway I tried it again using such spartan
config.sys - and with no autoexec.bat at all
- and it's still not going to work.
