I've e-mailed you a small zip file with a program that I called
LaunchMaximized that you pass in the command string you want to execute
and it tells that program to start up maximized.  You can rename the
program to make it quicker to type if you'd like.  The command string
can contain quotes but shouldn't be completely enclosed in quotes.
Whatever you type on a command line should work when passed in.

Here's an example of launching KEGS32 from a folder called "Ultima III":

    C:\>LaunchMaximized C:\KEGS32\Ultima III\kegs32.exe

By the way, if KEGS32 doesn't use the maximize button on a window to
switch to full screen then this probably won't work.
