NORSHELL.EXE, the Windows shell replacement, provides system management

functions specific to NORAND handĆheld computers.  NORSHELL.EXE, which

must be loaded in all Windows configurations, provides a method for launching

multiple applications when Windows startsĆfunctionality similar to that provided

by the standard Windows shells (Program Manager and File Manager).

To install NORSHELL.EXE as the Windows shell program, edit the 

" line

in SYSTEM.INI to 

", as shown in the following example:

SYSTEM.INI:
shell=norshell.exe

To configure NORSHELL.EXE, make the following entries in the 

[WINDOWS]

"

section of the WIN.INI Windows initialization file:

"

NorShellRun

Add the NorShellRun=<application command line>" line to WIN.INI to

launch an application.  Specify command line switches if required.

"

NorShellRunDir

If you need to specify a startup drive and directory for an application, add

the NorShellRunDir=<drive:directory>" line to WIN.INI.  NORSHELL

changes the default drive and directory, as needed.

"

NorShellLaunch

Note that NORSHELL does not interpret the run=" and load=" lines in

WIN.INI to avoid conflicts with other Windows shell programs.  For

example, you might want to use the Windows File Manager as your

application and have it process the WIN.INI run=" and load=" lines.
If you do need to launch several utilities or applications before starting a

particular application, add a NorShellLaunch=<program list>" line to

WIN.INI.  This line is formatted identically with the run= line used by

the standard Windows shell programs.  The programs are run in the order

they appear and are displayed with the SW_SHOWMINIMIZED setting.

(See the Windows 3.1 documentation for the ShowWindow function.)

All examples in this section assume the SYSTEM.INI entry documented in the

preceding paragraphs.  The WIN.INI example shows running an application,

MYAPP.EXE," after changing to drive C" and directory \app."  The Windows

clock and calculator programs are executed before running the application.
WIN.INI:

[WINDOWS]
NorShellRun=MYAPP.EXE /aswitch /anotherswitch
NorShellRunDir=c:\app
NorShellLaunch=clock.exe calc.exe

This example launches the Windows File Manager shell application, which

launches the clock and calculator in turn.
WIN.INI:

[WINDOWS]
NorShellRun=WINFILE.EXE
run=clock.exe calc.exe
