This software has been developed by the following people:

   normat@rpi.edu (Tim Norman)
   mrains@apanix.apana.org.au (Matt Rains)
   ejeffrey@iastate.edu (Evan Jeffrey)

Please note that this software is separate from the DOS-C kernel and may or
may not work properly under it.  When DOS-C becomes stable, I will make
every effort to get them working together, of course.

Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
To use this shell, just run the COMMAND.COM file.  Eventually, you will be
able to add this to your CONFIG.SYS file, but this doesn't currently work.

When it does, you'll be able to add this line to CONFIG.SYS:

SHELL=<shell path><shell filename>

e.g.

SHELL=C:\FREEDOS\COMMAND.COM

(This may or not work... I've received complaints that it doesn't, so I'd
imagine that's the case!)
