.INI File Sections


The .INI file has three possible sections:  the first or global section, 
named [CMD.EXE]; the [Primary] section; and the [Secondary] section.  Each 
section is identified by the section name in square brackets on a line by 
itself. 
Directives in the global section are effective in all shells.  In most 
cases, this is the only section you will need.  Any changes you make to 
the .INI file with the OPTION command are stored in the global section. 
The [Primary] and [Secondary] sections include directives that are used 
only in primary and secondary shells, respectively.  You don't need to set 
up these sections unless you want different directives for primary and 
secondary shells. 
Directives in the [Primary] section are used for the first or primary 
shell.  The values are passed automatically to all secondary shells, 
unless overridden by a directive with the same name in the [Secondary] 
section. 
Directives in the [Secondary] section are used in secondary shells only, 
and override any corresponding primary shell settings.  For example, these 
lines in the .INI file: 


        [Primary]
        ScreenRows = 25

        [Secondary]
        ScreenRows = 50

mean to assume that you have 25 rows on the screen in the primary shell 
and 50 lines in all secondary shells. 
Sections that begin with any name other than [CMD.EXE], [Primary], or 
[Secondary] are ignored.
