I need to use Windows 95/98 (actually, DOS as much as possible) for some
things at work but DOS is driving me nuts.  For example, I like vi but even
v5.5 of VIM truncates the filename to the mangled 8.3 format (unless I type
in the whole file name-- and I have no file name completion).  Has anyone
had any luck with alternate (free or cheap) command shells or running Linux
in a Windows window (that's what this "Winlinux" stuff is about, yes?)?  I
cannot tell but I think I'm using the DOS fs and I also need to be able to
access a Novell 3.12 (soon 5.x) share.
