MCA,

Thanks for your response on this..

Two questions..

Question - (1)
Can't you replace:
code:
  $os=""
  $os_dos=@dos
  SELECT
    CASE ($nt_mode = "yes") AND ($os_dos = "5.1")   ; - Windows XP -
      $os="XP"
    CASE ($nt_mode = "yes") AND ($os_dos = "5.0")   ; - Windows 2000 -
      $os="W2K"
    CASE ($nt_mode = "yes")                         ; - Windows NT -
      $os="NT4"
    CASE ($nt_mode <> "yes") AND ($os_dos = "4.90") ; - Windows ME -
      $os="ME"
    CASE ($nt_mode <> "yes") AND ($os_dos = "4.10") ; - Windows 98 -
      $os="W98"
    CASE ($nt_mode <> "yes") AND ($os_dos = "4.0")  ; - Windows 95 -
      $os="W95"
    CASE 1
      $os="???" ; - undetermined -
  ENDSELECT
With simply -
$os=@PRODUCTTYPE

With pre-4x versions of KiXtart that this SELECT..CASE..ENDSELECT code would be valid. But, since we are using the newer versions, we could trim down some of the code.

I can also understand trying to keep the same code for all versions you have available for people to download.

Question - (2)
Debugging would be helpful in Development, but do we need it in production?

For example:
code:
  $debug_mode="no"
  IF (len(ExpandEnvironmentVars(CHR(37)+"kix-debug"+CHR(37))) <> 0)
    $debug_mode="yes"
  ENDIF
Or - WSTART2.KIX

Thanks,

Kent
