again MeShell - binary distinguishing PM programs from cmd programs

<< < (3/3)

Martin Vieregg:
Thank you for the useful hints. @ is not a good idea. Now I realized that "start" and "call" are opposing pairs. So I will add a user setting
[ ] run PM apps asynchronously (via "start")

I assume that PM programs who start asynchronously accept using "start" in front of the program name. IBMview does.
If a user wants to start a PM program synchronously, he has to explicit use "call" in front of the program name if the setting is activated. I will note this in the docu.

In the Windows command line, this is default behaviour.

If a PM program is executed via CMD file, then the setting has no effect, because MeShell does not interpretate the content of the cmd file.
