: according to environment you are still in C:\stuff\files\other
: c:\gem.bat is an absolute address not a relative one
: cd c:\gemapps\gemsys might give you what you want but cd \gemaps\gemsys
: certainly wont
It should, under a half-decent DOS. For that matter, it does even under
DOS Plus 1.2, which is about as far from being DOS as you can get and still
run GEM:
C:\STUFF\FILES\OTHER>cd \gemapps\gemsys
C:\GEMAPPS\GEMSYS>
I just did a quick test with the FreeDOS 1.0 boot floppy in VMWare, and
the same command sequence seems to work fine there.
