way to make "command.com" default command processor instead of cmd.exe ?

[*ProteanThread*]

i'd like to be able to make "command.com" the default command processor for
my dos based applications that require it but want to still be able to start
"CMD.EXE" manually

They both work either way no matter what is listed via the Cmd line nor
Working.

What I mean, is, if I put a short cut to an ms dos program on my desktop,
how can I set it to call "COMMAND.COM" rather than "CMD.EXE" ? or does it
know automatically ?

For each program you want to run in command.com:

make a shortcut to command.com
in the shortcut's properties, Program tab, edit the Cmd Line: entry to
something like:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\command.com /C prog3.exe
where you add the "/C programname" after what Windoze made.

Be sure to set the Working Directory to the place where the program you want
to run resides.

And there you go.
