It's at least, why I'm still here for.              Cool, then here's a question: I've been spending some (too much) time writing       myself an "init"-type system of .bat files for my DOS machines. It's not as       advanced as it might sound, but it allows me to keep config files for various       NICs, sound cards and other hardware around, and then I copy the ones that       apply to a given piece of hardware into the "active" directories for the       hardware type, and it does its thing.              Now having seen some of the samples I've learned from, it occurs to me someone       must have done something similar before, and re-inventing this particular       wheel may not be the best use of my time.              Has such a thing ever been done, and achieved any significant popularity? In       other words, would there be such tools out there already, with a library of       "driver wrappers" and such?              If not, and if there is any interest, I'd be happy to publish what I've got       (some of it can be downloaded from the museum URL below).              Take care,       /Eirik              --       http://floppy.museum        ~ love over gold ~              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
