Well, since I have been using the beta copy for the last few weeks, and as far
as I can tell, you simply tell windows 95 what config.sys and autoexec.bat files
should be used when you run a certain dos program.  You can do this by
setting up a shortcut for a program in the file explore area (something like the
file manager in windows 3.1).  I hope this helps.
