Re: Environment Space in XP

As soon as you 'run' your batch file the 'Shell' containing those settings
is closed when the batch file exits - that's 
why you don't see anything.

The way it works is
1: Current DOS window (Parent)
2: Run batch file (creates a child shell with all your new variables),
nothing executed by batch file the shell closes
3: On closing it returns to parent shell whose environment didn't have the
variables

You cannot set up a DOS environment like that unless you execute an app
that will use the shell that was just created 
(Eg Norton Commander, XTree, etc... ).

The environment variables (LIB/INCLUDE/OBJ/PLL) need to be in autoexec.nt
or
what I used to do was include them in the rmake file itself.

Set up the paths in the windows environment and forget about them.
