Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Autoload (Boolean)
 
     The Autoload switch determines if PWB automatically loads its
     extensions on startup.
 
     When the Autoload switch is Yes, PWB automatically loads
     extensions whose names begin with "PWB" and are found in the same
     directory as PWB.EXE. PWB always loads extensions named in a Load
     switch.
     See: ◄PWB Extension Autoload►
 
     If you disable automatic extension loading, you can load
     extensions as you need them by assigning a value to the Load
     switch as follows:
 
          Arg "load:<extension>" Assign
          «arg» load:<extension> «assign»
 
     The <extension> is the path of the extension's executable file.
     PWB automatically assumes the filename extension .MXT. You can
     specify an environment variable path by using an
     environment-variable specifier.
     See: Arg, Assign, Load
          ◄Environment-Variable Specifiers►
 
     Syntax
