I did not actually write that part, nor most of this code. Mainly what I
did was to combine the existing routines. The only problem I was trying
to solve was that ShellExecuteEx ignored parameters from the registry.
Originally I had written a routine for handling the parameters. It was
suggested to me that much of that already existed. I had not noticed
that because the two shell execute routines were in two different source
files.
I guess I am not sure what the problem is with WinExec. Originally
ShellExecuteEx used CreateProcessA and ShellExecute used WinExec, which
simply calls CreateProcessA. I could certainly directly call
CreateProcessA if that is preferable.
