This is a question Redundant technology

Music on vinyl records, mobile phones the size of house bricks and pornography printed on paper. What hideously out of date stuff do you still use?

Thanks to boozehound for the suggestion

PROMPT
Do you use PROMPT to set your DOS prompt to wacky things? Because I do.

Yes. And I load ansi.sys so I can make it colour. I also use debug.exe like a hex editor and mod my command.com to call me stupid instead of "bad command or filename"

Amen
Unless you're running anything < ME you're really using Command Prompt.

As far as I know, unless you are using less than 98 you can't load ansi.sys. Can you? I use it in MS Dos 5.0 .. There is likely a TSR for all later versions of windows, that can be loaded into each session. An ansi.com or something.. bless real mode.
