==MPTSTART.CMD==
The file named MPTSTART.CMD contains Socket/MPTS configuration information for a workstation. Socket/MPTS creates and updates a MPTSTART.CMD file, based on your configuration selections using the Socket/MPTS window interface or using the response files.

==SHIFTRUN.EXE==
IBM EWS program, that allows you to press shift during bootup, and run program (CMD.EXE), with a n second timeout before continuing.
CALL=\path\SHIFTRUN.EXE n (in seconds) program
 
'''TIP:''' By Steve Wendt: In other words, it boots normally, unless you press shift when this loads. If you press Shift, it starts CMD, and when you exit, it finished booting. Much easier than Alt-F1, F2.
