	I guess no one heard me so I'll say it again. I experimented
with GEMSTART and found the following.
	1. If your DESKTOP.INF file includes any OPEN WINDOWS on the
desktop, then the current working directory will be set to the uppermost
of them. (just like on the desktop!)
	2. Otherwise, the current working directory will be set to the
root directory of the boot disk.
