  • IREX on a 64bit system.

    From Marc Lewis@1:396/45 to Robert Wolfe on Tue Nov 6 18:53:35 2012
    Hello Robert.

    Obviously IRex (Windows version) will run on a 64 bit system like Windows 7; what about "between.bat"? Will a .bat file even run on a 64 bit system?

    I know the OS/2 version runs "between.cmd" instead of .bat. Will the Windows version of IRex run between.cmd instead of the .bat variant? Or is that hard-coded into the excutable?

    Best regards,
    Marc

    ... Is there a Roman numeral for zero?

    yes.. standard batch commands work, what wont work is 8-16 bit utils being called from the bat.

    That's what I sort of suspected.
