Apple IIe Card - Manual (Page 91)

Each time IIe Startup restarts the Apple IIe Card, it creates a new IIe Prefs
file, unless there is already a file named “IIe Prefs” on the disk. You can
create as many different preferences files as you want, as long as you
keep renaming the most recently created IIe Prefs file. Once you’ve made
as many preferences files as you need, you can choose the IIe Prefs file
you want to work with by double-clicking its icon to start the Apple IIe
Card. As long as you don’t change any settings, the file you start from will
remain unchanged when you quit the IIe Startup program.
You can store the IIe Prefs file in one of three places. The IIe Startup
program searches for the IIe Prefs file in this order: in the System Folder;
in the Preferences folder, which is itself in the System Folder; then in the
folder where the IIe Startup program is.
You can start up an Apple IIe program either in a standard Macintosh way
or in a standard Apple IIe way, whichever is easier for you.
When you’re in the Macintosh environment, you can start up Apple IIe
programs by double-clicking their icons, though this method works only
for ProDOS programs.

Important: You can use this method of starting Apple IIe programs only
if you have an empty disk drive while the IIe Startup program is running.
In other words,
floppy disk startup people who have only one internal
disk drive cannot use this method. All others can. ▲ s ▲ s
