Running ASEM-51 from Windows 3.1x

- | II.1.6 Running ASEM-51 from Windows 3.1x Of course ASEM and ASEMX are running fine in the Windows 3.1x DOS-Box! But for integration into the Windows 3.1x desktop, the files ASEM.PIF and ASEM.ICO have been provided. To insert ASEM-51 into a group of the Program Manager, perform the following steps: Be sure that ASEM-51 has been installed properly for MS-DOS as described before. Start Windows 3.1x and expand the Program Manager window to its full screen size representation, if necessary. Focus the program group in which ASEM-51 is to be inserted, e.g. "Applications". Click from the Program Manager menu bar: `File | New` When the "New Program Object" dialog box is active, choose the option "Program Item", and click the OK button. Now the "Program Item Properties" dialog box should be active. Fill in the following items:
      Description:          ASEM-51
      Command Line:         ASEM.PIF
      Working Directory:                  (whatever you want)
      Shortcut Key:                       (whatever you want)
      Run Minimized:        [ ]
- Then press the [Change Icon] button. Now a message box appears with the error message "There are no icons available for the specified file". Simply press the OK button. The "Change Icon" dialog box should be displayed now. Fill in
      File Name:      ASEM.ICO
and press the OK button. Now the ASEM-51 icon should be displayed in the icon field. Press the OK button again. When returned to the "Program Item Properties" dialog box, press the OK button. (In national Windows versions, things may look slightly different.) Now ASEM.EXE can be invoked by simply double-clicking the ASEM-51 icon. After entering the program parameters in a corresponding dialog box, ASEM is running in a DOS window, which remains open after program termination, to let you have a look on the error messages. In principle, the installation of the protected-mode assembler ASEMX.EXE can also be done as described above. However, the <Description> field should be filled with "ASEM-51 XMS", the <Command Line> should be "ASEMX.PIF", and the icon <File Name> should be ASEMX.ICO instead.
