BootMenu 3.1 Copyright © 1993 by WolfSoft, All rights reserved.

NAME
	BootMenu - multiple startup-sequences (V36)

SYNOPSIS
	C:BootMenu [[DIR] <directory>] [TIMER [<seconds>]] [NOTIMER]

FUNCTION
	Allow executing of different startup-sequences on a startup.
	The original startup-sequence should be renamed to
	Startup-Sequence.Original, the other different startup-sequences
	should be located in the drawer S:BootMenu and can be of any
	name.
	
	A new startup-sequence should be created and should look like this:
	
	Lock >NIL: SYS: on		; Just to be safe.
	MakeDir >NIL: RAM:BootMenuTmp	; Store some files here.
	Assign >NIL: T: RAM:BootMenuTmp	; T: should be on RAM: (see NOTES)
	Assign >NIL: ENV: T:		; ENV: is needed somewhere !?
	BootMenu

NOTES
	If T: is assigned to a physical device and you reboot, or shutdown
	your machine in any of the other startup-sequences you will
	have a BAD SECTOR on your device. This is because the OS will be 
	unable to close a temporary file created by C:Execute.

EXAMPLE
	Ed "S:BootMenu/Just a Shell"
	
	Type in:
	
	NewShell CON:0/0/640/200/AmigaShell
	EndCli >NIL:
	
	Now try BootMenu.

INPUTS
	If a directory is not specified a directory called S:BootMenu is 
	needed.
	
	DIR:
	Directory to search for scripts.
	
	TIMER:
	Specify how long the program should wait before loading
	S:Startup-Sequence.Original, default is 10 seconds.
	
	NOTIMER:
	Wait for user input indefinitly.

RESULT
	Error!:
	You need Amiga Kickstart 36 or higher to run this.
	
	S:BootMenu/: object not found (Or the specified directory)
	You need to have a directory called S:BootMenu.
	
	BootMenu: wrong number of arguments
	Check the template with your arguments.
	
	AddPart: argument line invalid or too long
	Err, whoops, it could happen, but it shouldn't.
	
	If you're low on memory and the program fails it might produce an error,
	but not always.
	
BUGS
	Do not have more startup-sequences than the screen size will
	allow, you might get some very unexpected results. (Not tested)
	
	If you reboot your machine in any of the startup-sequences a
	temporary file in T:, created by C:Execute, will not be closed.
	This will almost definitly cause a BAD SECTOR!!
