Doesn't anybody try solutions before posting them? The above solution
won't help any batch file run 'quiet'. It simply does not work.
May I humbly suggest that you verify that posted solutions work before
posting them. Its like posting crapped out code to binaries. You
waste your time, my time, and the nets time (and money)
The recently posted solution for getting the current directory in
to a envar does not work either. (see followup)
