********* NOW UPDATED FOR WINDOWS 3.0 *********

RUN.EXE is a Windows program that executes other windows programs.
Run was created because I needed some way to execute more than one
application from the DOS command line and I could not find anything
that would do this for me (without costing me memory or more time
than I could afford) hence Run was born.




  To use Run just execute it from the DOS command line as:

  WIN RUN <APPNAME...>

  APPNAME... can be one or more application names separated by commas that
are either in the current directory or along the path variable.  For example:

  WIN RUN CONTROL, CLOCK.EXE, TERMINAL

  Will execute the Control Panel, Windows Clock and the Windows Terminal 
program in that order as though the user had clicked on them from the
MSDOS executive.
  Run assumes that the program will have an extension of .EXE if no
extension is supplied.



  To use Run from the MSDOS Executive just select File/Run and type in:

  RUN <APPNAME...>

  APPNAME... here is the same as above.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

  Starting with version 1.1 of Run you can add a command line to the
program that you are telling Run to execute.  For Example:

  RUN CONTROL, WRITE TEST.DOC, CLOCK

  Will run the Control Panel and the Run will execute Write with the
command line "TEST.DOC" so that Write will open the file upon
startup, and then will execute the Clock application.



  If you have any questions or comments please message me at the above
Compuserve address.
