Subject: Environment variables in BeebEm 1.41

I want to default BeebEm 1.41 to load an ADFS L format disc (160 track) on
startup. So I use a .bat file to run BeebEm and set the relevant environment
variable.

       set BeebDiscLoad0=A:160:discims\Utilities.adl

This should work based on the format examples (much older) available. But it
generates an error, telling me to use D (double sided)  or S (single sided)

Trying

       set BeebDiscLoad0=D:80:discims\Utilities.adl

predictably doesn't work. BeebEm loads OK (defaulting to a Master 128 with
ADFS default FS on my system) but doesn't recognise the format.


Any ideas anyone? Or is it just that Richard hasn't implemented an ADFS
convention for this environment variable? This seems possible, as I get the
impression they are not much used by now.
