My problem of shelling out to DOS under VPC with Windows98 may be a problem
that only Robert can solve. Robert??? I can't think of anyway to test it
other than trying various forms of the DOS command, none of which work.

I mean I have VPC creating a virtual machine with only the DOS from Win98
installed on it. So it "boots" (virtually boots) to the C:\ prompt. BTW,
it's wonderful how fast you boot to C:\--about one second.
