- Are you sure that 4DOS doesn't support DR DOS passwords? I remember reading
- (in the 4dos 4.0 docs, I think) that the DR DOS delimiting character for
- passwords conflicts with the command separation character in 4dos, so for PW's
- you need to use two semicolons. Did this change? Didn't I get the memo?
