Harry and all,

> I have to be logged into the vdos-lfn directory.

I've updated vDosSet.exe so that it's no longer necessary to be logged
into the vDos-lfn directory when you launch vDosSet.exe. The file
vDosSet.exe, however, must be situated in the vDos-lfn directory. The
code has been corrected and strengthened in other ways, too.

The ZIP file now also includes a batch file, vDosSet.bat, which
supports the grouping together of multiple config settings under a
single alias, or nickname. So, instead of commanding:

vDosSet.exe lins=43; cols=100; title=Test; colors = (0, 0, 0) (35, 35,
35) (75, 75, 75) (89, 89, 89) (160, 10, 20) (52, 52, 52) (113, 113,
113) (190, 190, 190) (128, 128, 128) (100, 100, 100) (150, 150, 150)
(178, 178, 178) (230, 30, 40) (150, 150, 150) (240, 20, 40) (255, 255,
255)

you can gather this group of settings under an alias, say "MyTest", and
simply command:

vDosSet.bat MyTest

You can also append additional settings to an alias "on the fly":

vDosSet.bat MyTest WP=XY; frame=on

Instructions for setting up aliases are in vDosSet.bat itself.
