I am not sure about W98, but in NT 4.0 I open the command shell properties
dialog, go to the Layout tab and set the buffer size to 10 times the window
height. This gives me vertical scroll bars and the ability to look at the
last 10 screens. The maximum buffer size seems to be 9999.
Regards,
David

Assuming that's what Jan is looking for (and I believe it is too), 9x doesn't
have this very useful capability in command.com. Anyone who is interested
can check out the discussion in the archives on this very subject
from a week or two back. The short version is either get some
commercial Win32 replacement for command.com (4DOS or another product I
don't recall the name of) or work with rxvt (with or without X11).

Rats! I'm only allowed to do mode 80,50 under WinDos98.
