It blows up - "file alocation table bad, drive E" which is my RAM disk for frequently executed programs. Only by putting dcompress last does it SEEM to work.

I got a Tandy DMP-202 dot matrix printer, it emulates IBM proprinter X24, but on all printouts it feeds out 1 extra inch of paper, which is very inconvenient. Someone said, that all Tandy printers do that, but there is not a word about it in the manual. Does anyone know if it is possible to turn off this feature, or is this set forever and ever.

It is "type-nn filename" Sorry, funky logic, but that's how it worked. __Actually there was (programming, not USER convenience) method to my madness: if I'd made the command "type -nn filename", then the logic that scanned the first operand as a filename would instead pick up the "-nn" as a filename. BUT since I only look at 4 chars to match a command, the type-nn was just "seen" as "type", and the filename was still the first operand. BUT then in the type routine, I go see if there's a "-" after the type command. A TRUE HACK, to minimize the coding. Sorry for the inconvenience.
