Prior to 7.02, every local application had a configuration file, with the extension ".cfg". This configuration file had to be located in the same directory as the local application executable. For the local application supplied by ESL, this meant the file would typically be in the directory: "C:\Program Files\EslSyndetic".

The local application configuration file contained a single parameter "INPUTBUFSIZE", used to allocate memory for the commands being sent to the application. With ESL 7.02 the configuration files have replaced by adding an option to the command line used within the "start" statement when starting the local application.

The new option is "-m xxxx" where xxxx is the INPUTBUFSIZE in bytes. We have also increased the default INPUTBUFSIZE from 512 to 4096 bytes, so the majority of Local Applications do not need to use the "start" command line option.

If you need to set the INPUTBUFSIZE above the default 4096, then the "start" statement should look like:

start local Shell "doscmd.exe" "-m 8192"
