| Gman and everybody else that may be interested....
|
| 1. This is the autorun.inf for the portable version of AIRoboform.
| Can you help me figure out what purpose the various lines are
| for? Below is my guess as to what it all means and how to use it.
| I got a lot of help from the MSDN website here:
| http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776823.aspx
| (http://tinyurl.com/69mu8y). That link came from WikiPedia at
| http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autorun (http://tinyurl.com/sdkfs)
| - - - - - - - - - - - -
| [AutoRun]
| open=PortableRoboForm.exe
| action=Launch RoboForm2Go
| shell\RoboForm2Go=Launch RoboForm2Go
| shell\RoboForm2Go\command=PortableRoboForm.exe
| icon=PortableRoboForm.exe
| label=RoboForm2Go
| - - - - - - - - - - - -
| 2.
| a. [AutoRun] is maybe just a label?
| b. open= identifies what will run/launch when the action displayed
| in the autorun dialog box is selected
| c. action= specifies the text that will appear as an option in the
| autorun dialog box. d. shell\RoboForm2Go= specifies the text in
| the context menu when the drive bearing the label RoboForm2Go is
| right clicked e. shell\RoboForm2Go\command= specifies the command
| to execute when that option on the context menu is selected.
| f. icon= tells the system where to find the icon to display for
| the drive. label= specifies the label or name of the drive.
|
|
| 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
