Hello folks,
The more that I use NeoDesk 2.04, the more I positively enjoy the
program. A very handy feature is the AUTOEXECUTION of programs feature
that NeoDesk does after it loads itself during bootup.
Example: QAUTOST.PRG. This program was graciously released into
the NET and instructions advise that the program should be placed into
the /AUTO/ folder.
However, doing this resulted in my having to struggle with reshuffling
the files and all of that. I discovered that QAUTOST.PRG works perfectly
when run from the desktop. Ah!
Using the AUTOEXECUTION feature of NeoDesk, I assigned QAUTOST.PRG
to be run from that mode rather than the /AUTO/ folder.
Nice! Works great. Speed tests indicate a significant increase
of GEMDRAW. All of this from a simple type in command and save of
NeoDesk's desktop.inf file. None of this shuffling files out of the
/AUTO/ folder and reshuffling them back.
Now, when I boot the system up, NeoDesk comes up and then QAUTOST.PRG
comes up. Very handy feature, folks.
