SUMMARY
When you start MS-DOS Shell, the DOSSHELL.INI file is read into memory.
Each unique item in the DOSSHELL.INI file is stored as a token (there is a
2000 token limit). When this limit is reached, any action that causes MS-
DOS Shell to write to the DOSSHELL.INI file (which requires a new token)
causes the computer to beep. For example, the computer beeps when you try
to add a New Program Object.
