advanced CONFIG.SYS processing
a new command ECHO
ECHO does ECHO it's argument (surprised ?-) and is executed at
the time the DEVICE= lines are executed.
use it similar to
ECHO loading driver 1
device=Driver1.sys
ECHO driver1 successfully loaded
the following advanced config.sys processing options are available:
normal
FILES=20
DEVICE=MyNetWorkDriver.sys
'?' - ALWAYS ask if a single line shall be executed
FILES=20
?DEVICE=MyNetWorkDriver.sys
'!' - NEVER ask if a single line shall be executed, even if single stepping
!FILES=20
!DOS=HIGH,UMB
!BUFFERS=30
DEVICE=MyNetWorkDriver.sys
configuration management - you may compose several configurations,
using following special commands:
MENU
MENU select your configuration
MENU
MENU use (0) for basic configuration
MENU use (1) for CDROM operation
MENU use (2) for NETWORK configuration
MENU
MENUDEFAULT=0,1 ( configuration 0, wait 1 second)
1? rem CDROM
1? device=CDROM.SYS
2? rem NETWORK
2? device=MyNetworkDriver.SYS
Although this is definitively worse then MSDOS menuing possibilities,
IMHO it's better then nothing
thus my config.sys now looks like
!files=20
!dos=high,umb
!break=off
!buffers=30
!screen=0x12
!lastdrive=z
MENU
MENU
MENU 0 - SoftIce+HIMEM+Network (default)
MENU 1 - SoftIce+HIMEM
MENU 2 - HIMEM+EMM386
