ITZ>The syntax Xavier suggests for ITZ>a loop won't work with COMMAND.COM, Of course it will work with Command.com. Only problem is, you have to double the "%" if you put it into a batch file. ITZ>COMMAND.COM is a shell from hell (rhyme ITZ>unintentional) or rather from the early 60's... Ok, _that_ is true. But there are better solutions (for example 4DOS for DOS-lovers or MKS Toolkit (for those that like more unixlike environments). There is even a Kornshell plagiat for DOS. The major problem with DOS isn't O'Caml - you can circumvent all problems easily, because you have the full source of the runtime library (for example I made small changes to be able to transparently use "@"-file redirection to support long command lines) - the major problem with DOS's commandline is, that _external_ utilities don't support one consistent way to enable long commandlines. For example the Microsoft Assembler utilities gave me much headaches to integrate them into O'Caml. I should hate DOS, because it always gives me much work to do - but actually I love it. It's just one of the last adventures a man can take ;-) bye, Georg
