This file is part of the DMT (the Desktop Maintenance Tool) for eCS. Written by Richard L Walsh.

Every time your system starts, DMT checks the system's INI files and corrects errors that might prevent the WPS from operating properly.

Commands

DMT.EXE provides a set of commandline options that most users may never need. They can be set either individually ("/f /v /r") or as a group ("/fvr"), in any order, using either '/' or '-'.

Commands

/H
show the Help screen (ignored in config.sys)
/O
show the Options dialog (ignored in config.sys)
/F
force DMT to do a full check and clean of the INI files
/C
force DMT to check and fix the INIs without cleaning them

Modifiers

/V
verbose - display error and information messages as DMT runs
/P
pause after DMT has finished (only useful with /V in config.sys)
/R
read-only - DMT will perform all of its usual tests without modifying or backing-up the INIs *
/D
dump the contents of the handles table to a file *
/U
specify the user INI to check and clean *
/S
specify the system INI to check and clean *
/A
analyze INIs from another machine - DMT will not test if drives and files exist (/A also forces DMT to use the /C and /R options)
