             Command Line Echo Program for Windows

Reports current directory and command line arguments in a Windows 
message box as well as in the Windows clipboard.

This program is useful as a snoop utility to determine what 
arguments a "shelled" Windows program (e.g. a compiler or linker) 
needs to launch correctly.

Simply move the desired executable to another directory and replace it 
with a renamed version of ECHO.EXE.  ECHO will list all of the command 
line arguments normally received by the compiler/linker as well as the 
current directory name.

Additionally, ECHO will place the command line in the Windows 
clipboard.  Therefore, you can PASTE the command line into an editor 
and save it.

A bonus feature is available to users with Norton Desktop, PC 
Tools/Win, or any other shell that supports drag and drop through the 
command line.  Whenever you need to type a long filename into a window 
or dialog box, do the following instead:

1) Make an ECHO.EXE icon.
2) Drag the desired filename(s) onto the ECHO icon.
3) Hit the OK button to terminate the ECHO program.
4) Select the dialog box or window to receive the file.
5) Type SHIFT+{INSERT}.  (This performs a PASTE operation.)
