This is a small quick detail of the wonderfull use of CL$().

Pretty self explanitory. Anything retreived by CL$ is a string so its best to always treat it as such with str$().

Now that you have all that in you have to create a shortcut. Of course have it pointing towards the exe and at the end of it all put -1, -2, -3, OR -4. They wont work all togehter, has to be one or the other. The only downfall of this is the fact you have to use the shortcut to see the effect, other then that its a handy tool.

If you need more help or just dont think this explains it enough go ahead and email me.
