[Nfb-idaho] free list of 101 run commands

[Bill Morgan]

Hello listers.
A friend that is a blind tec sent me this list of 101 "run commands."
I have never heard of them, and am not sure what they do but thought they may be helpful.
So I will copy his message in to this one, and you can go through as time allows and see what they can do for you.

Also you can hire Reginal George. He works as a tec guy for Freedom Scientific from home six hours a day. Plus he free lances and hires himself to people that are blind or low vission to help them with there computer issues.

I use Reg a lot. So here is contact info

email at, adapt at kc.rr.com

Reg will contact and explain his fee. I have found him very fair.

 





101 useful Run Commands 



Do you use the Run feature in WINDOWS XP? For most, this feature remains unused (or rarely used). Why is that? Well, First off nearly all of the Run

Commands Correspond to a particular Control Panel Item or a Utility, Tool or Task that can be accessed through W*NDOW$. There are, however, tools and utilities

that I bet you never knew you had that can be accessed through the Run feature. The main reason most people don't use the Run feature is because they don't

know the Commands. So, to solve that problem, I decided to put together the following listing, which lists 101 Run Commands and what they correspond too.
