[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=SHELL32.dll,3
[taskbar]
Command=toggleDesktop

ok, im just curious about all this stuff, I have searched the crap out of the www, and I cannot find help on this.

I know that the code above will create a windows explorer command tht will show the desktop when you click the icon. I have learned how to change the icon (the shell32.dll, contains the system icons and ,3 happens to be the closed folder icon, i was just messing around) Ne way, um i was wondering if any Geniuses out there knew any of the other commands. You know how above there is command=2, and command=toggle desktop, im sure the second one is just a task bar command, what other commands for the taskbar are their, and i think that the command=2 is an attribute of [shell],and so is IconFile=, or.... what ever..... I just would like some info. If you can it would be nice.

Edit: Now that I think about it this should have gone in Win32 discussion but oh well, it will probably get more results here.

Anybody???

Come on Geniuses Needed!!!!

this is all I could find... not sure what you want to do with this. to quote the link "It is just one of those fabulously undocumented things that folks who code don't
need, and most users won't bother with."

IconFile=explorer.exe,1

[Taskbar]

Set IconFile to "SHELL32.DLL,3" to make the script look like a folder.


I see much more information in Google. I see number 4 - what is it?

Have you looked inside the DLL?

I see inside it - it's yokey inners grin at me like a budgie on his perch.

Internet dripping with this - fat budgie will surely snap his perch with his excited jumping up and down.

Calm down there, puki... there, there, that's a good lad.

I dont know. I just wondered if there was anything else cool you could do with it. Thanks Guys.

DONT LEAVE YET!!!!

One more question. Is there a way to make a folder, you know like a windows folder using some sort of code?

Yep.

Do you know how to do it? is it like in a dos batch file or something? Can you tell me how to do it?

"puki" cannot answer - would be cheating - could only answer one more question.

Mother is watching.

mkdir

Alright, just help me with this, and ill quit. Please.

I know nothing.

whatever...

.

Snarkbait already told you how to do it.

Place

mkdir c:\myfolder

in a batch file.

oh, i had no clue what he was saying, yeah "make directory"

thanks for clarifying that, thanks snarkbait

Or:
md c:\myfolder

(Unless you are using a really old version of DOS that does not support "md".) IIRC 5.0 and above supports "md".

thnx. do u know agood site that has this stuff on it?
