Something is less than nothing you know :-)

Something like that, Clarence (IIRC) seems to have missunderstood what the
F2 key will backup as well... (the APM not the things it change/overwrite).

Ok.

Some of the following have refrences only Michael will understand, sorry
about that...

I've looked some at cfgwiz.c and here's a description (instead of
"PATCH.RAR for module XYZ"):

strcpy(abat,"A.BAT");

 if(!strstr(abat,".BAT"))
 {
  will never get here...
 }
 else
 {
  but always here...
 }

A little uselss huh? (so there you have the "three clockcycles and half a
byte")

There should be no problem with a weird text in the dialouge (abat is
always "A.BAT"). However I wonder what possible use this will have, it will
be written to the current directory (the Arachne directory). Or is it
supposed to do so?
However now it thinks that the 50 files I have in config.sys aren't enough...
So here's another patch:

//!!Bernie:begin 00-07-21
// if(config() < ENOUGHFILES)
 if(config() <= ENOUGHFILES)
//!!Bernie:end

But perhaps we should find out why this is checked before even caring? (if
you don't know Michael who does... ?)
