    73 Starting FM&slash.2
    74 :p.Starting FM&slash.2 &endash.&endash. how it works&comma. customizing
    75 parameters&colon.

    77 &endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.&endash.
    78 .br
    79 If you start File Manager&slash.2 &lpar.filename FM3&per.EXE&rpar. with no
    80 parameters&comma. it opens the  :link reftype=hd res=97600.Drive Tree window:elink.
    81 but no directory windows &lpar.unless the :link reftype=hd res=97000."Save state of dir windows":elink.
    82 toggle is checked&per.
    83 :p.File Manager&slash.2 optionally accepts names of directories in the
    84 parameters field of its program object&semi. it&apos.ll open a directory window for each
    85 one&per.
    86 .br
    87 Hint&colon.  If you often do different specific things with FM&slash.2&comma.
    88 you might set up a WPS object customized to start up ideally for each activity&per.
    89 For example&comma. if you wanted to maintain your BBS areas&comma. you might
    90 have one object with parameters like&colon. "D&colon.&bsl.BBSDIR
    91 D&colon.&bsl.BBSDIR&bsl.MAILIN
    92 D&colon.&bsl.BBSDIR&bsl.MAILOUT"&comma. and if you also like to use FM&slash.2
    93 to set icons on files&comma. you might have another object with parameters like&colon.
    94 "E&colon.&bsl.MYICONS D&colon.&bsl.NEWFILES"&per.  The State :link reftype=hd res=99400.quicklist:elink.
    95 can also be used for this within FM&slash.2 itself&per.
    96 :p.You can exclude drives in the parameters by prefacing the drive letter
    97 with "&slash."&comma. and there can be more than one drive letter behind the
    98 "&slash." &lpar.i&per.e&per. "&slash.BH" to exclude both drives B&colon. and
    99 H&colon.&rpar.&per.  Hint&colon.  Many people like
    100 to use &slash.B to exclude "phantom" drive B&colon. if they have a
    101 single&endash.floppy system&per.
    102 Similarly&comma. you can cause drives NOT to be prescanned by the
    103 Drive Tree by prefacing the drive letter with "&semi."&comma. drives NOT to load
    104 icons for objects by prefacing the drive letter with "&comma."&comma. drives NOT
    105 to load subjects for objects by prefacing the drive letter with "&grave." and
    106 drives NOT to load longnames for objects by prefacing the drive letter
    107 with "&apos."&per.  This can be handy if you have a very slow drive like a
    108 CD&endash.ROM or Zip drive&per.  FM&slash.2 Lite recognizes these switches&comma. too&per.
    109  See also the :link reftype=hd res=99980.Drive Flags dialog:elink. in FM&slash.2&per.
    110 :p.If you place the plus sign "&plus." &lpar.alone&comma. separated from
    111 anything else by spaces&rpar. in the parameters&comma. FM&slash.2 will log&comma. to
    112 FM2&per.LOG&comma. delete&comma. rename&comma.
    113 move and copy operations that are performed by drag&endash.and&endash.drop or
    114 with the menus&per.  FM&slash.2 Lite recognizes this switch&comma. too&per.
    115 :p.The parameter "&endash." &lpar.alone&comma. separated from anything else by
    116 spaces&rpar. causes FM&slash.2 to ignore&comma. not load or save&comma. the previous state of
    117 directory windows &lpar.see the :link reftype=hd res=97000."Save state of dir windows":elink.
    118 toggle under Config Menu&endash.&gt.Toggles in the online help&rpar. for that invocation&per.
    119 :p.You can specify the name of an alternate INI file with "&endash.&lt.inifilename&gt."
    120 &endash.&endash. for example&comma.
    121 "&endash.C&colon.&bsl.FM2&bsl.MYINI&per.INI"&per.
    122 :p.You can also specify the INI file location with the environment variable
    123 FM2INI &endash.&endash. for example&colon.  SET FM2INI&eq.C&colon.&bsl.FM2&bsl.MYINI&per.INI&per.
