I find it much easier to keep several configs or load many libs with th old bat, and much cleaner & safer than having to tweak the registry (which you will need to do if you use 'path' or 'startup'). IMHO I think the dialogs are just more confusing thn the .bat, at least in w$.

i also think that it's not a good idea to store the settings in the registry. but you wouldn't have to tweak it manually if there wasn't that bug. or is it a feature and i'm missing something? anyway, under win i'll stick to using .bats
