The usual reason to have this behavior is because you want preferences to be specific to what you are editing. EDIT is being invoked from the %PATH%, with the directory you are in presumably where the file you are editing resides. Save your preferences, and when you edit the file again, they will be seen and used by EDIT. This way, you can have different preferences for different files you edit. What EDIT preferences would you want to set globally and have them always active? ______ Dennis ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
