TL> Oh man I just noticed something running in console mode from Syncronet! If

TL> About to Execute : D:external.bat
TL> dosemu FOSSIL emulator: installed.
TL> Bad command or filename - "share.exe".
TL> Bad command or filename - "ansi.com".

TL> Why is it not finding share or ansi.com when running via the Synchronet

I'm not sure why that might be..  But I believe Synchronet has its own directory for the C drive for dosemu, and in exec/dosemu.ini, it injects some variables to specify the different drives for dosemu.  Maybe that's a place to start.
