                          AUTOEXEC.BAT


If there is a file called AUTOEXEC.BAT in the root directory of the disk used
during the boot, commands in it will be executed every time you turn on your 
computer.

See the BATCH_COMMANDS topic for information about what can go in the 
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. See the NEW_TERMS BOOT topic for more information about
how DOS uses AUTOEXEC.BAT during a boot. Below is an example of what might
be present in an AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

	@ECHO OFF 
	C:
	SET PATH=C:\LOCAL;C:\DOS;C:\
	SET COMSPEC=C:\DOS\COMMAND.COM
	VERIFY OFF
	APPEND /E
	APPEND C:\DOS
	PROMPT $P$G
	C:\DOS\GRAPHICS

Old versions of OS/2 look for the file OS2INIT.CMD in addition to AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Under OS/2, the STARTUP.CMD file can be used to run commands after booting.
