detect the plop usb driver under dos

[Multipassface]

perhaps the driver that plop sets up for USB-Dos can somehow be made a file I can use in "config.sys" of DOS. I am sure it's a silly question, but I am determined to find a solution

no thats not possible

but its possible to create a sys fie that detects the plop usb driver, or have i done this already? i don't know. i have to look

[Multipassface]

oohh sounds exciting  - fingers crossed!!!

[Elmar]

it seems, its not developed yet

[Multipassface]

ok, any ideas when it's coming out, I will gladly test anything you want

Check for the plop usb driver

plpchk [/?] [/h] [file]

  /?      help
  /h      hide text output
  file    create this file when the driver was detected or remove it when the
          driver was not detected

You can run this program from the command prompt or config.sys

config.sys example: DEVICE=c:\tools\plpchk.exe c:\tmp\plpusb

For batch processing: ERRORLEVEL 0 = no driver detected
                                 1 = driver detected
