subject: Calling another batch file...

Hello Laurent!
Quoting Laurent's message:
 RB>> I have included in my 4DOS.INI file the following line:
 RB>>    AutoExecPath = C:\4DOSEXEC.BAT
 RB>> With the above statement, and according to the docs/help file, when
 RB>> 4DOS installs itself, it should call (load) 4DOSEXEC.BAT rather than
 RB>> calling (loading) AUTOEXEC.BAT
 LJ> Don't forget that statements in CONFIG.SYS line override those in
 LJ> 4dos.ini.
I know that...
Just to be sure that 4DOS would call directly 4DOSEXEC.BTM directly (without 
first calling AUTOEXEC.BAT), I placed the line
    AutoExecPath = C:\4DOSEXEC.BTM
in my 4DOS.INI file, and the line:
    SHELL=C:\4DOS\4DOS.COM C:\4DOS @C:\4DOS\4DOS.INI /PC:\4DOSEXEC.BTM
in my CONFIG.SYS file.
Unfortunately, 4DOS still calls AUTOEXEC.BAT and not 4DOSEXEC.BTM...
Sincerely, Raymond Beriau.
