What is it?

 

It's an LUA driven Autorun program for Windows.  (Autorun programs are used to start up software automatically when a CDROM or DVD is inserted).

 

Features:

 

    * Ability to display/hide a splash graphic

    * Generate a working directory in %TEMP with a specified base name

    * Copying files

    * Getting the current processes PID

    * Starting a process

 

I had a need to create a flexible autorun program as part of the replacement software for the Blackdog embedded linux device.  When the device is plugged into a Windows box it initially presents itself as a CDROM.  

 

Putting it out there in hopes it may save someone some time.

 

If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know.

 

Thanks

Terry
