Thank you for your answer, Adrien.

Here we go.

Add those three files to your current directory, add skyvase.pov and
run crash.ini vs. nocrash.ini
wait till the render finishes.
with nocrash.ini you will have to hit CTRL-C and close the dos-box.
(that's intended, test.bat is a endless-loop, just showing you that's
running)
with crash.ini, you will get a dialogbox telling you a file called "
(questionmark, nothing else) was not found.
When you delete the %s in the Post_Scene_Command, you will get a
message in the message-window instead, telling "could not create
process"

The difference between crash.ini and nocrash.ini is just a "missing"
Return (<Enter>) after the Post_Scene_Command.

Adding Post_Scene_Return=I (or F for that matter) results in test.bat
never beeing started at all.

This is beta 2, Win98, AMD 1,4GHz, 512MB DDR Ram

I reffer to my old post, inwitch the whole problem is explained once
