The Login_Name$ internal function contains the operating system user login name. This can also be set with LOGIN_NAME$("newname").
The priority of the LOGIN_NAME variable setting is:
- 1) BR startup parameter (@name)
- 2) Windows 95/NT or Unix login name
- 3) BRCONFIG.SYS "LOGIN_NAME name" statement
These alternatives support the assignment of login name in all models. This can significantly simplify the tailoring of BRCONFIG.SYS files through use of the @name statement prefix. Instead of having to place a separate BRCONFIG.SYS file on each client system, the client's could specify the login name of the user, and a common BRCONFIG.SYS file could contain the custom statements for all users, beginning the custom statements with @name for each login name.
e.g. BR @myname run menu
BRCONFIG.SYS includes:
