Hi,
Some Questions…
FDNPKG.EXE would look for its config file in the %DOSDIR%\BIN directory.
However, you could use a different configuration file by setting an environment
variable. For example:
set FDNPKG.CFG=C:\MYREPO.CFG
cfg = getenv("FDNPKG16.CFG");
When you updated FDNPKG16 to look for its config file in the same directory as
the executable instead of under the FreeDOS\bin directory, did you keep this
ability.
yes!
Also, do you use the env variable FDNPKG16.CFG to avoid potential future
conflicts with the legacy version of FDNPKG?
let me double check.
cfg = getenv("FDNPKG16.CFG");
yes
Same goes for the actual configuration file name.
yes it looks for fdnpkg16.cfg in the same folder as it launched from
:-)
:D
