3. So an autorun to launch two applications might look like this:
[AutoRun]
open=portableapps.bat
action=LaunchPortableApps
icon=any icon
label=PortableApps
4. And the portableapps.bat would like this:
echo off
roboform executable 
aSuite executable
exit
5. This paragraph was left blank accidently
6. If all of the files are located in the root with the autorun.inf file will 
any pathnames be required?  If they were in a subfolder beneath the root how 
would a relative pathname be constructed?  I think it would need to be a 
relative path since the drive letter might be different on various computers 
the drive gets plugged into.  Is anything special required to make a batch file 
run under a windows environment?
7. I think the shell lines could be optional but if not then they would look 
like this:
shell\PortableApps=PortableApps
shell\PortableApps\command=portableapps.bat
8. I think additional shell lines could be added to start each app 
separately... such as:
shell\PortableApps=RoboForm2Go
shell\PortableApps\command=RoboForm executable
shell\PortableApps=aSuite
shell\PortableApps\command=aSuite executable
