- attempt to pass arguments to the program you run.
- default value = C:\OS2\CMD.EXE
- example: -cE:\OS2CMDS\CMD.EXE
-
- -wWAIT_TIME Tells NPWAIT how long to count down, in seconds.
- default value = 10
- example: -w20
-
- -r Tells NPWAIT to resume countdown when you exit the

- default value = Do not resume countdown, exit NPWAIT immediately.
-
- FULL EXAMPLE:
-
- The following command will run wait 20 seconds, and run
- the program D:\OS2\CMD.EXE if a key is pressed. When the user
- types EXIT at the command line, it will continue on with its
- countdown until it reaches 0. Then it will continue with
- CONFIG.SYS.
-
