Thanks also to Per Allansson [per at appgate.com] for similar information.

Yes, this is what I was looking for.  For the record, one does not
need to state the path to javaw.exe in a typical installation
of Java under Windows.

My shortcut now says:

 %windir%\system32\javaw.exe -jar
"D:\Connectivity\Tools\mindterm-3.0\mindterm.jar"

(Note where I have the app installed.  I also will point
out that I have Java installed here:

 D:\Media\Platform\Java\jre1.5.0_05

(I try not to put things on C: aside from the OS.)


This brings up my next question: when I save a profile in MindTerm,
it wants me to use "MindTerm home" here:
MindTerm home: C:\Documents and Settings\Dallman Ross\mindterm\

I don't want it there.  I want it under:
E:\Config\Connectivity\MindTerm

So how can I do that?
