Re: Batch File to EXE and Hide Files

Hi, I wish it made them temp but this program doesn't do that. Bat To Exe-Converter ( http://www.f2ko.de/programs.php?lang=en&pid=b2e has this feature. To add folders/sub-folder, the only solution I can think of would be: 1. 7zip the folders. 2. Add the parameters (7z.exe x folder.7z) in the bat...

Re: Just for fun - cmd animation

I've read that one! I figured out how to delay between the txt-files, but is 0.5 seconds possible? Thanks for the 'for and colour thing' tho Just have to name the txt files better so that it fits in.! If 1 second is minimum all usefulness will be that clock I soon got done.. Humhum Search continues!

Just for fun - cmd animation

Hi! Been enjoying the dostips'tips and for fun, I want to make myself a small animation snipple displayed in cmd.exe... But! I can't find (probably bad use of googleing?) a way to delay execution of next command to under a second. One second delay between the .txt files is just terrible. Soooo, is t...

List m3u files in folder and choose it

Hi! I'm wondering if its a easier way of doing this. Been searching the forum for hints (and taking code;) the script work, but there will be alot of hardcoding I guess..

Thank you! At first I used reg add HKLM\Software\whereever but it was easier code with regedit -s hurrah.reg like you said. Just hoped that regedit had something like xcopy. xcopy a.exe "%windir%" > C:\ log.txt or something like that... Anyway I will figure a way. Log is not that important...
