Very good question. I tried to find out how to make specific files to autostart when inserted. It looks like a special CaPriCe Forever feature. As soon as I have found out how to do it, I will let you know, unless someone else finds out. Thanks

Ok, here is the answer from the author of CaPriCe Forever ...


Caprice will check the content of the catalog to find a visible single file with BAS, BIN or no extension.
In that DSK, there are several visible BAS files. Caprice is not able to know which one to launch.
But, there are something to do.
If you open the Files Manager window, and hide the file "MANAGER.BAS".
Now, the autostart should work by launching "BJES.BAS".

I don't know if that's a final solutions or if you can somehow manage to rename MANAGER.BAS, so that only BJES.BAS is left? In this case AUTOSTART would work.

Cheers

Good to know! I guess if you don't need the file manager you could delete it.

Ok, I finally found time to delete MANAGER.BAS and AUTOSTART works in Caprice emulator. Would it be possible for you to convert MANAGER.BAS into a .BIN file instead and release an updated version or is that too much to ask? Other than that ... you know Bomb Jack Extra Sugar is by far the best home computer conversion. Cheers
