And I don't see the sixth line created in my ini file. Can't I create new lines ?

Perhaps the following idea will work:

Define environment variables for each of the separate paths and then use those in CreateShortcutsIn.ini.

For example, suppose there are the following six paths one wants to use for a single menu item:


* C:\Documents and Settings\User\Red
* D:\Documents and Settings\User\White
* E:\Documents and Settings\User\Yellow
* F:\Documents and Settings\User\Black
* G:\Documents and Settings\User\Green
* H:\Documents and Settings\User\Blue
One can use a batch file or other means to define environment variables such as:


* set RED=C:\Documents and Settings\User\Red
* set WHITE=D:\Documents and Settings\User\White
* set YELLOW=E:\Documents and Settings\User\Yellow
* set BLACK=F:\Documents and Settings\User\Black
* set GREEN=G:\Documents and Settings\User\Green
* set BLUE=H:\Documents and Settings\User\Blue
(If a batch file is used for this, one idea is to use it to launch CreateShortcutsIn.exe.)

In CreateShortcutsIn.ini, one might have:


--- Code: Text ---[Settings]; hotkey to bring up menuHotkey=^+c; destination locations (numbered starting at 1) to choose from; absolute path1=%RED%|%WHITE%|%YELLOW%|%BLACK%|%GREEN%|%BLUE%
I tested something like this just now, and it seemed to work fine here.

Note: It is important that the environment variables are defined before CreateShortcutsIn.exe is launched.

I don't understand the problem being described.

Would you mind posting your ini file or one that reproduces the problem for you?
