ML> How do I put a space in the  part of a Xtern_Dos menu item ?

 ML> Eg, in "menus.ctl":

 ML> ========================================================
 ML> =====================
 ML> Xtern_Dos   C:\GAMES\KNK\KNK.BAT DORINFO1.DEF   normal  
 ML>  "Kannons & Katapults"
 ML> ========================================================
 ML> =====================

 ML> The above example will give an "Invalid ACS definition: 
 ML> 'DORINFO1.DEF'" error (Maximus treats the 
 ML> "dorinfo1.def" as the access definition rather than a 
 ML> parameter to "KNK.BAT"). I want Maximus to treat 
 ML> "dorinfo1.def" as a parameter to the calling batch file.

Ok I figured it out.

I use an underscore "_" to catenate spaces that are meant as part
of a single string and "%U" for an actual underscore in the
command line.

==============================================================================
Xtern_Dos   C:\GAMES\KNK\KNK.BAT_DORINFO1.DEF   normal   "Kannons
& Katapults"
