 SO>   My zork.bat file that the DD command executes is as follows:
 SO> 
 SO>     @echo off
 SO>     cd c:\mystic\doors\infocom\zork
 SO>     c:\mystic\netfoss\netfoss.com /m /i /t%1
 SO>     _zork1.com c:\mystic\temp%1\door.sys
 SO>     c:\mystic\netfoss\netfoss.com /m /i0
 SO>     cd\

this also is passing a hard coded path to the temp1 dir which is not a good
idea as any user on another node will not be able to run the game nor will
the batch file see the drop files they are creating on a temp basis when they
run the door.

I am not that into door games, have not played or installed this one, but how
that zork.bat should be set up will be determined by what the software is
looking for to be passed to it on the fly.

You need to use wildcard vars to pass this info from Mystic into the bat file
and onto the zork exe
