Looks great, but how do you run them? I tried CHOICE in a .BAT file under
4DOS and under CMD.EXE, neither recognized it. In fact, CMD.EXE reported:

"'choice' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

Doesn't run at a "Command prompt" either, though the page heading is:
"An A-Z Index of the Windows NT/XP command line."

By the bye, Carl, while I have your attention, any recommendation of the
best-performance setting for Control
Panel/System/Advanced/Performance/Advanced Memory Usage as between Programs
and System Cache? I had checked System Cache, but Googling it I found one
guy suggesting Programs.


Thanks,
Harry
