As it happens, I _do_ consider that to be the simplest start ;-) Regardless, double-clicking ZTW.EXE in Explorer, or start/run/browse'ing to it both give the same result here - current directory is the application one, which is why I called it "by default".

In general, I think the phrasing is still correct in all cases, provided the user understands what the "current working directory" of an application is, and how Windows sets it up when launching programs.

Purists would prefer an 8.3 name, and ZTREEWIN.BAT can be shortened to... ZTWIN.BAT maybe ;-) Seriously, I don't see why or where that'd matter in the least.

Cheers,
