hook me up

All those commands are just programs in your windows directory. Handy ones I use are:
Regedit - edit the registry
Msconfig - edit what starts up
Sysconfig - similar, deal directly with files
notepad
ping "something.com"
tracert "something.com"
command.com - open up a dos box
calc - open up the calculator
sol - open up solitaire

Those are all I can think of off the top of my head.

do 2 things:

get yurself into an ms-dos window, go to your windows directory and type "dir.exe"

this will list all the .exe's that u could probably use from start/run
also, go into the command folder (located in the windows folder) and you'll find more .exe's u can use.

i use start/run all the time. saves clutter on the desktop. in autoexec.bat i just added the line "path=%path%;c:\short" where c:\short is a folder where i store a bunch of window shortcuts. for example, a shortcut called "ie" points to "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" now when i go to start/run and type "ie" it executes that shortcut. very handy

have fun

How does that exact syntax for the "ie" path go?
