Comments
VARKON95 automatically checks for $VARKON_INI\VARKON.INI at
startup.
If this resource file exists it is loaded. An additional resourcefile
may
be specified on the commandline using the -i option. Resources from
VARKON.INI
may not be owerwritten by resources from the file specified with the -i
option. This behaviour is different from the UNIX version of VARKON.
VARKON95.EXE automatically checks the process environment variables each time it is started for the existence of VARKON_ROOT. If VARKON_ROOT is found VARKON95 expects the following environment variables to be defined as well.
