IMO it's a bug in FD command.com. If a command line exceeds 126 bytes, the value at [PSP:80h] "should" be 0x7Fh ( and a 0x0D "should" be placed at [PSP:FFh] ) - that's at least what COMMAND.COM of Win95/98 does. The environment variable CMDLINE will then contain the full command line. It's documented in RBIL.
A bit more information from Japheth: freecom sets the length byte of the command tail at PSP:80h to the "true" value of the commandline length. If the command line is 130 chars, this value will be 82h. However, since the PSP has a size of 256 only, just the first 127 bytes are copied to PSP:81h-ffh. Note that Eric has replied now, and I have to digest that. BFN.
