2219.0. "decw$* files question." by IMPROV::HEDAYAT () Tue Feb 06 1990 15:54

    Hi everyone,

    	I have a question regarding decw$* files.  These files, by default I
    believe, are created in the root directory.  Can I set some logical or
    do something to direct these files to some other location.  

    	I was playing around and defined "DECW$USER_DEFAULTS" logical.  
    This worked for directing "VUE$PROFILE.VUE$DAT" and "DECW$CLOCK.DAT" 
    files.  But there are other files I am concerned with also.  Files
    such as "DECW$WINMGR.DAT", "DECW$SM_GENERAL.DAT", and
    "DECW$SM_COLOR.DAT".  Any help is appreciated in advance.  Thank you.

	I think you need job logical names to direct them because they get 
	read before decw$login gets run.

    I am not sure what you mean by job logicals.  And also I don't have
    decw$login file, I just have my login.com file.  Do I need the
    decw$login?  Thanks.
