BBB: Config Manager for Novell DOS 7

It not only does a choice between different configurations but allows variables to be set in a dialog with radiobuttons and checkboxes. The variables are used in IF/ELSE statements or for conditional parameters. They can be exported to the environment. The definition is done in CONFIG.SYS itself in a brief and easy to use language.

Features: adjustable colors, tab-width, ANSI/ASCII conversion, text search, show control characters.
