strange... i can remember the old freenet-batches (finsert.bat frequest.bat)
used start.

start [options] programm [parameters for programm]

and there's AFAIK a option that makes start execute the programm in background.

but then, i have no WIN and can't check, thus.

well, then it seems like you have to maintain such huge batches...

"..."  should mean "and so on"

strange DOS behaviuor....  actually *.* should include each file in this directory,
*\*.* all the files in all subdirectories....  don't ask me why this doesn't work.
