There's a section in win.ini (maybe system.ini) where you can list
programs you want Win3 to startup automatically & leave running in a
window or leave icon-ized.  A Win3 shareware app. called WinStart came
across the net awhile ago that installs .exe's into that section using
windows & mouse-clicking.  (I'll be sending my registration fee RSN :-)

This is all on my home machine so I can't post the code right now.
The "_ini_.txt" files should cover the topic.  Maybe someone can post
a ftp source site for WinStart.
