Locating Files

During the logon sequence, KiXtart 95 automatically tries to locate all files that it is asked to open (SPK, WAV, TXT, and so on) by searching for them first on the NETLOGON drive, then on the drive where KiXtart 95 was started from, and finally in the current directory. You can override this behaviour by preceding the filename by a drive letter or a UNC path.

For example, if you type the following command:

play file "Jbond.spk"

KiXtart searches for Jbond.spk on the NETLOGON share, in the KiXtart startup directory, and in the current directory.


When you use this command:

play file "C:Jbond.spk"

KiXtart searches for Jbond.spk only in the current directory of the C drive.
