If you can't get EDIT to save that as an option, you can try using one of the DOS "automatic typing" programs that are available. I don't think there are any that actually come with FreeDOS, but there have been several of them made over the years. What these programs will do is automatically "type" keystrokes for you after the program (EDIT) starts, selecting the appropriate menu options (in your case, that would be "Alt-o, w") so you don't have to worry about it each time. You will need to start EDIT with a batch file of some sort if you wanted this to happen "automatically". One such program is made by me, and is called SCANCODE. You can download it from my web site: http://bretjohnson.us There are also several other programs around that do essentially the same thing as SCANCODE, but are much simpler than SCANCODE and won't work in as many different situations as SCANCODE does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
