Documentation @exetype[]

[Charles G]

What file extensions, besides EXE, would be good for this function? From the CHM I believe it would be at least:

PIF
COM

Not sure of others.

And .DLL and .SCR, and maybe .VXD.... You can feed this function the name of any file which is readable, but for most it will just return 0.

Thank you Charles. I guess I want to see what extensions would return something other then 0.

@djsplits - i'd like to use @exetype on the file extensions that would return non-zero values for this function. think the routine only does EXE files now?

 

[Charles Dye]

Oh, and .CPL.

 

[Charles G]

So the list is:

COM
CPL
DLL
EXE
PIF
SCR
VXD (?)

I guess EXE is the only type that exetype[] would return multiple possible values.
