ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Help for QuickLaunch ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Use QuickLaunch to preload a Windows session to allow PerfectOffice
applications to run faster.
QLWIN supports the following command line switches:
1. /wpc=<directory> - used to specify the location of the shared code DLLs.
If this option isn't specified, the directory specified by the
\WPConfig\SHWin2X\Preferred entry in REG.DAT is used.
2. /wpcnt - used when the shared code directories are located on the network.
o "0" specifies that the shared code DLLs should not be loaded at all. This
option is normally used when a server install (of any application) exists.
In order to allow the "WPCNET Settings" and "WPCNET Flagging" icons to
load the proper BIF file, shared code cannot be loaded at all when they
are executed.
o "1" through "60" specifies that QuickLaunch should periodically (every 1-
60 seconds, depending on the parameter) check for the existence of the
shared code DLLs. Once they exist, they should be loaded. This option is
normally used when a workstation install (of any application) exists.
Because QuickLaunch is normally loaded BEFORE a user logs on to the
network, QuickLaunch needs to periodically check to see if the user has
logged onto the network. Once the user has logged on, the shared code
DLLs can be loaded.
Note: If this option is not specified at all, and the shared code DLLs
cannot be located, QuickLaunch will immediately shutdown.

QuickLaunch in the startup folder so your application will start faster.
If this option is not selected, QuickLaunch is placed in the Shared
Applications Folder.
o Add SET RESTARTOBJECTS=STARTUPFOLDERSONLY to CONFIG.SYS - Changes the
existing CONFIG.SYS file to start only those objects located in the
startup folder when OS/2 is first started.
o Make backup copies of OS/2 system files - Copies of OS2.INI, CONFIG.SYS,
and OS2SYS.INI are backed up with the .Wxx extension.
o Destroy existing objects before recreating them - Destroys, then recreates
all objects from scratch. It will also remove any objects that no longer
exist on the hard disk.

any objects that no longer exist on the hard disk.

your config.sys file.
