- AUTOSTUB Version 1.2

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Version 1.2 corrects a runaway problem when WINDIR= is the last entry in the
- environment.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Version 1.1 corrects the problem in version 1.0 of incorrect path
- generation when the WINDIR= environment variable is not set.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- This is a simple little hack to make a Windows program load Windows
- instead of just printing
- "This program requires Windows to run"
- or
- "This program can not be run in DOS mode"
- or something equally as useful.
-
- The source is included and is self explanatory except that you should set
- an environment variable to allow the windows directory to be located (you
- should do this even if you dont use AUTOSTUB.EXE).
-
- Do this by adding the line
- set WINDIR=c:\windows (or where ever your windows lives)
- to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
-
- By default, if WINDIR= is set in the environment, a path of "\WINDOWS" is
- assumed.
-
-
- Thats all folks.
-
- Enjoy, Steve Flynn.
