:-)  I just had to remember *one* thing : if I had no clue (or forgotten) 
what a command does than I just needed to type its name and than "/?" 
(without the double-quotes).  Most of the time it than showed a "help" page 
with all its arguments switches.

Under XP it even works for the command-shell itself : "command /?" or "cmd 
/?".

Indeed.  Which is why I saved the story on my 'puter (could not chance it to 
disappear).
