| Sometimes, none. Here's an example. I created a shortcut for the KOEI.BAT file I've mentioned. It creates a DOS screen which stays visible for about three seconds, then closes. The batchfile itself apparently doesn't initialize--perhaps it contains commands that are no longer recognized in WinXP; but then, why does it run if I type KOEI after dropping to DOS, and moving to that directory? (And yes, I start the shortcut in that directory.) Compatibility is set for Win98/Me, and I've chosen to maximize the window.
