mbirth 376dc75b2d x removed several variables from replacement queue because replacing any "1.0" by "U3_ENV_VERSION" doesn't make any sense
! found U3_ENV_SUB_VERSION
+ added ParseIniFiles-section to parse .ini-files and replace envvars

U3Helper
(c)2006-2007 by Markus Birth <mbirth@webwriters.de>

Some words for the manifest.u3i:

If your app doesn't store anything inside %USERPROFILE% or such, then just call it directly
inside the <appStart> - such as:

  <appStart workingdir="%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%" cmd="%U3_HOST_EXEC_PATH%\WebMon.exe">-prefs "%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%\WebMon.ini" -pages "%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%\pages\WebPages.dat"</appStart>

BUT: If you app DOES store some stuff inside %USERPROFILE% (mostly noticeable if there appears something under
     C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>\Application Data\<somewhat>\<something>), call it as follows:

  <appStart workingdir="%U3_APP_DATA_PATH%" cmd="%U3_HOST_EXEC_PATH%\U3Helper.exe">appstart</appStart>

This way, the environment variables %USERPROFILE% and a bunch of other related will be set to point to the
data directory on the U3-stick and therefore those app will store its data there instead of on the host system.




Take a look at the U3Helperex.ini as there are all supported settings mentioned. You'll get the idea of the expected
format.
