Why would anyone want to create such EXE file
which just starts a J application? And what
such EXE file would do exactly?
Most EXE files are not started by double-clicking
the EXE file directly. Instead a Shortcut is placed
on the Start menu, Desktop, etc.
It is very easy to create such a shortcut for your
application. Here is how to make a shortcut for
the Plot demo:
* right-click Start, select Explore
* go to: All Users\Start Menu\Programs\J
* create a copy (not shortcut) of the J 601 icon
and rename it to Plot
* Right-click, select Properties
* In the Target line add (separating with space):
-jijx system\examples\graphics\plot\plotdemo.ijs
* Click OK. Close the Explorer
Now on the Start menu under J you have a Plot
stand-alone application. This could be automated
in a simple script.
