-- PARAMETER PASSING
The Nifty Menu system is able pass along user-specified parameters to the
programs and batch files it executes. To indicate that you want Nifty to
ask for a parameter, simply place a "?" at the end of the instruction line
containing a program or batch file path/name. Example:
D>DIR ?
This line tells Nifty that it should execute the DIR command whenever "D" is
pressed. Before it does so, however, it will ask the user for the parameter(s)
to be passed to the DIR command. If the user indicated the parameter, "*.EXE",
then Nifty would execute this command: "DIR *.EXE".
