WinUAE start program

[Demon Cleaner]

A guy named Stefan Lorei has written a small program called RunADF with FreeBASIC to start amiga files (adf or dms) without having to start WinUAE, just by double clicking on the RunADF.exe file.

This is the main ini file, which you change for your own configuration, and place it in the winuae.exe directory.

winuae.exe=c:\1gilles\emulation\amiga\WinUAE\winuae.exe
uae.config=c:\1gilles\emulation\amiga\WinUAE\Configurations\default.uae
floppy0=c:\1gilles\emulation\amiga\WinUAE\Test games\tsb_fa.dms
winuae.parameter=""

This is mine for starting the TSB demo called tsb_fa.dms
In the winuae.exe directory there should be following files:

- RunADF.exe
- RunADF.ini (your config file)
- RunADF.uae

That's quite interesting. We could maybe use this to include ready to run configurations for demos and games that are hard to start?

[Demon Cleaner]

Good idea, but we should ask the programmer.

So we could make the ini, the config and share it together with the demo/game and the exe file.

Problem: everyone has installed WinUAE in a different location.

We should then include a ini editing for dummies file, assuming WinuAE is on c:\winuae. Only having to edit the ini file isn't complicated. Of course they should also know where to put the config uae file, which is also very simple.

That's pretty cool.The things people do with time on their hands
