There are two other ways to fix this:
1) WSUFIX5.ASM: This is a patch to WS.COM and WSOVLY1.OVR that will have
WordStar search a default user area for COM and OVR files. Therefore,
you need only one copy of the WS files (thereby saving you directory
entries).
2) SUPUSER.COM: This program resides just below the BDOS and has a list
of files and where (drive/user) they are to be found. The program
must be initialized for a particular set, and for many programs it
can be integrated into the COM file (not WordStar, however).
For WordStar, I prefer to use WSUFIX5, since it merely changes the user
area, and does not defeat the drive searching feature of WordStar (look on
default, then on A: (or wherever)). I have several copies of WS.COM in
my DU areas, each configured for a different application. I use SUPUSER
for most other programs with overlays, etc.
