SYMPTOMS
========
When you run MS-DOS in 40-column mode, numerical output in directory listings
does not contain comma support.
CAUSE
=====
In 40-column mode, at most, 39 characters can be displayed before line-wrapping
occurs. With comma support added, directory listings are 43 characters wide. To
prevent directory listings from wrapping in 40- column mode, MS-DOS disables
comma support.
