config.exe requires .NET Framework 4.0 Some graphic adapters may not be able to run this program in full screen (because of FreeGLUT!). Right now the config & client can only handle ANSI characters! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Making most use of the program ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This program is most useful if you log on to your computer automatically, and the client launches after logon. How to set up automatic logon (you should know that this is a security risk): On Windows XP: Run Tweakui (windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/xp-downloads). 1. Go to the menu: Logon -> Autologon 2. Enable: Log on automatically at system startup 3. Set Password -> write your password. -> OK On Windows 7: 1. Run -> netplwiz 2. Uncheck "Users must enter a user name and password to use this computer." -> OK 3. Write the password for your user account. -> OK There are several ways to make the client run on startup, and I'm not sure I've come up with the most convenient one. Put a shortcut to the client in this directory: %userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\ You can also run it via the Task Scheduler (WinXP: "Scheduled Tasks"). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Programs, files and arguments ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Files that are not programs require a specific program to be opened. Arguments tell the program to do a specified task. In some cases, in order to open a file with a specific program, you only need to put the filename in the argument to the command that opens the file. File: Argument: notepad c:\test.txt This will open the file c:\test.txt in notepad. File: Argument: C:\Program Files\Firefox\firefox.exe google.com This opens www.google.com in firefox. File: Argument: explorer C:\test folder Opens a folder in a new explorer window. Search google for "command line" + the name of a program, to find out what arguments can be used in programs. Note that some programs may require that a path in the argument is in quotes: "argument". ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- explorer, cmd, notepad, etc. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you type in the name of an executable such "explorer" in the "file" area, and don't enter any working directory, Windows will search for the file in the current directory (startup selector client folder), and also 'C:\Windows\' and 'C:\Windows\System\' and execute it, if found. It will not, automatically, execute any files from System32. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- working directory ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you type in a working directory, the file will not execute if this directory doesn't exist. If nothing is entered as the working directory, the path to the executable will be used to determine its folder. If the executable has no path (explorer.exe, cmd, etc.), the startup selector client folder is the working directory.
