do you have a PATH statement in your autoexec.bat that tells DOS that your have programs in c:/dos ? (I cannot make myself type a back slash; it's just wrong.) And why would you want caps lock on?

I'm using a Compaq 386. Rather than typing CD DOS every time that I need to run a program (BASICA) in the DOS directly, how can I create a shortcut that loads on boot to let me type BASICA at the C:\ prompt and have it run automatically? Also, is there a shortcut I can use (for example in autoexec.bat or config.sys) to make Caps Lock automatically enable on boot?
