Please excuse this interuption of an interesting transfer of thoughts.
But; alas, I have some questions for someone in the know.

1) Is there a way in the cli to request keyboard input during the execution
of a batch file?  I would like to be able to have the startup-sequence file ask
me if I want to dump the system commands into a ram-disk.  If this is not
offered in v1.1 will that be changed in v1.2?

2) I seem to be having trouble when swapping disks (I only have one drive), in
getting the system to recognize that the new disk is different.  It is a royal
pain having to reboot everytime I change applications.  Is there something I am
missing out on?  (Ex.  I boot on my workbench disk, do some system things, and 
decide to play on Dpaint awhile.  When I pop out workbench and put in the Dpaint
disk the system flashes a requestor on the screen for the workbench disk.)

3) How do I get my preferences onto the Dpaint disk?  I don't think this is 
all that crucial, but I don't like the original arrow pointer.  So I drew my own
(after all, thats what preferences is for right?)  The only problem is that 
Dpaint uses the pointer that I hate; and I want my own!!

If any of these questions are in the manual, please give me page nos. or 
somthing, any help is much appreciated.
