Edit-OemLine

This command is specific to ASCII/ANSI files, such as AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS. These files do not support the "Windows Ini-File syntax" (file > section > key > value), so commands must be specified more precisely.

The command works with placeholders in all text fields, but there are no restrictions on the use of placeholders as in Shell operations. For example, constructions such as *TEST* are possible, the TEST character string is found regardless of the characters before and after it (InString search function). Comment lines (REM...) are ignored, since otherwise there may be confusion between documentation and actual commands.
