- Well, all you would really have to keep in the login directory is
- dmenu.bat if you use
- #logout
- #exit
- to leave the menu, but I'll admit, it is a kludgy solution. It works
- best if you leave the temporary batch files on local drives. I am trying
- to think of a better way to do this, but dos is such a limiting enviroment.
- Does any one have any suggestions?

- The latest version is v1.67 and it is in the pub/MSDOS_UPLOADS directory
- on wuarchive.wustl.edu. It is called dmenu167.zip.
