ShellRun freeware v1.0.1 March 29 1998 Windows application ShellRun retail v1.1.0 January 7 1999 Windows applicationShellRun is a Windows 95/98/NT/2000 program to open a document. It is primarily useful when you want a CD-ROM to AutoPlay a document, eg open an HTML web file. It can also be used at a command line prompt to open any document.
Although the Windows start
command can be used to open a web page,
ShellRun works in all command shell environments and does not display
an annoying DOS box window.
Download the freeware version: shrun10.zip. Unzip in a new directory.
