Hi, Another user on this mailinglist ($Bill Luebkert) has the Windows 98 compatible cmd.exe on his webpage: http://dbecoll.tripod.com/
Last item in the first table: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cmd.exe for Windows 9x (from Microsoft site originally - not findable there any more). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I've used it in the past and as I recall it's just what you want. Don't thank me, thank $Bill for keeping this on his site ;-) Regards, Huub. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Beckett Richard-qswi266" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 3:19 PM Subject: command prompt problems. > Guys, > > I've installed perl at home on my W98 system. > > There are many reasons why I want to stick with w98, so changing OS is not > an option. > > The problem is, that I use the command prompt a lot when writing/debugging > scripts, but the w98 prompt is really crap.
