So, where the > reference to c:\fdos\temp\ came from ? i looked at the set command, one thing I noticed was my temp dir was listed as c:\fdos\temp I think that is why I got the initial error, regarding the temp directory. I tried to edit my autoexec.bat file to set my temp directory to where it was located in my file structure. which was c:\fdos\bin\temp but when I restarted my computer and ran the lynxbat.bat file followed by the set command it changed back to c:\fdos\temp I did make a temp directory in c:\fdos and that error went away I don't think the wattcp.cfg file is a problem, atleast judging by the error messages I have been getting (even though I did copy wattcp.cfg into the directory where the lynxbat.bat file is located) an error I get often is: Configuration file /dev/env/DJDIR/lib/lynx.cfg is not available I have a file in the dir where I have lynxbat.bat that is called lynxcfg.cfg, I don't know if this is the file they are referring to. I have opened lynxcfg.cfg and read some. when I type out lynxcfg.cfg it says a couple of things, 1. it has a comment right at the top and it calls the file lynx.cfg 2. it has a comment that says the default location of this file is: /usr/local/lib/lynx.cfg (unix) I am running mac os x, which I think is a form of unix. I went into a terminal on my host computer but I cant find those folders they don't match my host computer. lynxcfg.cfg goes on to say that you can change the default location of lynx.cfg in the userdefs.h file and recompile it or you can use the -cfg command line option, which I have tried with no luck. I wonder why my version of freedos called lynx.cfg lynxcfg.cfg. I also wonder why my autoexec.bat set the temp directory wrong. I have tried lynx a number of different ways starting with your suggestions for wattcp.cfg. and editing lynxbat.bat a number of different ways, with no luck any more help would be great > > Try the command > > set > > without any parameters.
