Re: Markdown to HTML converter

More words about some circumstances having to do with particular implementations. Because of its limitation, the batch script accepts the -u/-U and -t/-T options in this order exactly. It can be changed to enable an arbitrary order but makes the script more complicated. Right now I don't want to do ...

Markdown to HTML converter

Earlier jfl implemented his own batch script which converts markdown to HTML sending requests towards GitHub or another API with curl. His script is published in thread A dual Batch+CSS script to convert Markdown to HTML . Since that time I kept hope to combine both ways -- using local pandoc and re...

Re: How to reset a batch variable in Powershell?

I guess the following experiment covers your requirements. But pay your attention that deleting environment variable works only within PS. Deletion doesn't propagate to upper process (CMD in your case). So when you return to CMD, you'll see the original value: Set the variable in CMD and call PS C:\...

ansi.bat: handling ANSI sequences in nowadays WIN terminals

A few days ago i found out that windows terminal supports ANSI sequences. It's cool, of course. However, as it's usual in Windows world, every cool feature has worse things. VT is off, by default. Luckily, it can be turned on easily. ENABLE/DISABLE Turn on: reg add HKCU\Console /v VirtualTerminalLev...

Re: Determine Yes/No/All string for current locale

You might want to include space in the delimiter list if you want the entire word without trailing space. Trailing spaces are already trimmed in the separate section of the script. I didn't include the space in the delimiter list because it would be too hard to parse the string. Even more, I am not...

Re: Determine Yes/No/All string for current locale

At least this one covers both English (WIN10) and Russian (XP and WIN10) versions. Based on my results I can suppose that it could cover others as well. At least in the frame of the supported formats: @echo off setlocal set "ans_yes=" set "ans_no=" set "ans_all=" copy /y nul zzz >nul for /f "tokens=...

It doesn't work in Russian (XP and WIN10) yes = да no = No all = нет yes character = д no character = N all character = н because >copy /-y nul zzz <nul Скопировано файлов: 1. >copy /-y nul zzz <nul Заменить zzz [Yes (да)/No (нет)/All (все)]: Скопировано файлов: 0.

Re: SUDO for CMD

a way to redirect stdin/stdout/stderr from the elevated shell, back into the original shell
It looks like it is solved in gsudo. Sorry, it's C#, not a pure batch.
