Hi;

I just got a windows XP box at work. The doskey command doesn't appear
to work.
How can I enable it and set it up to be enabled automatically ( still
in autoexec.bat ? )?

Are there any free utilities to enhance the command line in windows xp?

Thanks

Steve
 
Doskey has changed from previous versions.

Doskey is Doskey.exe. %windir%\system32\Doskey.exe

Does the command: doskey /? work in a command prompt?
