I have set up my computer to load straight up into Windows 3
from my autoexec.bat file. However somtimes I just want to load
xtree to do some copying/moving. 

I saw once a programme which was called from the autoexec.bat file 
which loaded for a few seconds then finished and let the batch file
continue on. This was to give the user time enough to do a <ctrl> c
to stop the batch file.

Has anyone seen a programme similar to this ?

thanks in advance.

Tommy.
