Execute (config)

From BR Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Execute config specification causes BR! to execute a command upon startup. In the event a command is already provided in the startup icon, this statement will be ignored. This enables the automatic startup of applications under Windows client server and on the MAC (previously available only on Unix/Linux/AIX).

 EXECUTE "command"
 EXECUTE "RUN MENU"

Note that this statement, as well as any others can be conditioned on a specific login name by beginning the statement with:

 @login_name (followed by whitespace)

where login_name is the applicable login name.

 @jsmith EXECUTE "RUN MENU"

Execute can also be used throughout a BR program to override most BRConfig.sys configurations, for example:

EXECUTE "config xxxxxx"
