WARNING: Back up your current AUTOEXEC.BAT and Exit To DOS.PIF files.
I am hoping you already know a bit about Multiple Configurations,
if not you should read the section in DOS Help first.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
You may already know this trick but...
If you are running Windows 95 (or 98?) and have your system configured
for multiple start up, you can add a few lines to your AUTOEXEC.BAT
to automatically Exit To DOS once Windows starts.
(bypassing the Shut Down... dialog box routine)
:windows
REM deletes Exit To DOS from StartUp directory (if exists)
IF EXIST :\WINDOWS\STARTM~1\PROGRAMS\STARTUP\EXITTO~1.PIF DEL :\WINDOWS\STARTM~1\PROGRAMS\STARTUP\EXITTO~1.PIF
goto end
:dosgames
REM Copies Exit To DOS to StartUp directory (overwrites if exists)
REM Causes system to Exit To DOS
COPY :\WINDOWS\EXITTO~1.PIF :\WINDOWS\STARTM~1\PROGRAMS\STARTUP /y
goto end
:end
