Here are some examples of the autoexec.bat and config.sys files that 
will help you see the way they should be set up to get the functionality 
out of Dos 6's  Multiple Config options!

I found that the DOS Manual, as well as the online help, for this was
a bit on the vague side.  I hope that this file will help you to get the
hang of it.

It doesn't seem to take up any of the precious memory your computer needs
to run big programs.   

***NOTE***** I'M USING DOUBLE SPACE!!!  IF YOU AREN'T USING IT, DON'T PUT
IN ANY SYNTAX CONCERING IT.  (DON'T ADD THE DOUBLE SPACE COMMANDS TO THE 
FILES).

***The configurations for the programs listed work.   
***Windows 3.1 runs just fine with the normal set up presented here.

I found that the Microsoft Mouse "MOUSE.SYS" file uses LESS memory than the
"MOUSE.EXE".

                ***(DOUBLE CHECK YOUR PATH TO THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS!!!)***

Good luck
