Re: Showcasing the stuff I made over time

Here is command line one-liner to play snake. Just Ctrl+c and ctrl+v into an open terminal to play. WASD to move ver 2: -Using a font with an aspect ratio close to 1 is recommended. -While I did know that time could be used to calculate the length of a game tick, it obliviously didn't occur to me (n...

Showcasing the stuff I made over time

Here is some of the batch garbage I made over the years (actually quarantine, other stuff didn't make the cut) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1SMPvNqTgC64KrN2zRvq3rIFd5plCNWU2?usp=sharing Don't get me wrong I have created plenty of more garbage. It's just that this garbage has the most inter...

Re: Get cursor position

Definitely might use that. :D You potentially only need to run powershell once I figured there existed a powershell one-liner to get cursor position, but I was kind of hoping for a native batch way to insert an {ENTER} (to store cursor location in set /p). For example getting the enter key using pro...

Re: copy doc files

Hello,

I would use the following

Code: Select all

set folderX=Y:\folderx
for /r "C:\" %i in (*.doc) do xcopy "%i" "%folderX%"
for /r "D:\" %i in (*.doc) do xcopy "%i" "%folderX%"
Perhaps there's a better more efficient way to do this, but I'm not familiar enough with all the copy options.

Need some help in getting this work

I think what I'm trying to accomplish will be clear by looking at my code. @echo on setlocal enabledelayedexpansion :: The below is used to clear variables so that it's easier for my eyes when I debug by checking the "set" command. In other words useless. for /f "tokens=1 delims==" %%a in ('set') do...
