Yes it does work, I just tried it. It actually creates the text file in any
directory you want. Since you are playing with XP, would you mind trouble
shooting some door games like BRE under XP? Maybe I can figure out what I'm
doing wrong. I think it might be that the batchfile needs to have a line in
it to pass the fossel to the game. I've tried everyone else's batchfiles and
nothing seems to work. It was an easy install under 98.

The print function doesn't work for me under XP however, but that's not a big
deal.
