Too bad the Win95 help is so junky that you can't use it to figure this
out.  Maybe in the next release of Win95....


Anyhow you can try this:

To increase the environment space allocated to a command window in Win95:


You can change either the properties of the "command.com" program
or any shortcut to that program.  The following tells you how to do it
to the command.com program:

Right click on start button.  Click on "explore".

Using the explorer, navigate to the windows directory (normally c:\windows)
and right-click on "command.com" in the right pane.  Click "properties".

Select the "Memory" tab and in the drop down box under "Initial Environment"
choose a size of at least 1024 bytes.
