Along those lines (and I can't believe I'm asking this) but does anyone out there know where there is an online reference for the .bat file syntax? I tried "command.com --help" and "info .bat" and they just didn't get me anywhere :-] Better yet, has anyone seen a more portable way of launching java programs on all platforms? Clould we tweak the Ant ClassLoader to do the .jar file searching after startup, so that "java -jar ant.jar" really does work? What do the MacOS people out there do? There's got to be a better way! :-) sim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores. Millions of Products. http://shopping.yahoo.com/
