keeping to a similar style, here is one example of how to achieve this: @Echo off (Set LF=^ %Do Not Modify%) If Not "!![" == "[" Setlocal EnableExtensions EnableDelayedExpansion :CheckArgs If "%~1" == "" ( Choice /N /M "Use Batch Args Y/N?"

You are a genius. That worked really great. I wanted to add the command to the output txt file so I could make the output clearer. Do you have any suggestions as to how I can make it look nicer? It really is up to you to choose how to format the output. It would probably be simpler to read a temp o...

Perhaps you could be interested in my Tetris game in a pure Batch file that uses no additional or auxiliary programs. There is also a version of Tetris in color that uses a PowerShell engine to Read arrow keys and show color text in an efficient way . Antonio Hi Antonio, had already seen your versi...

The randomised UID isn't strictly necessary, however simplifies isolation of a given instance of the script should multiple instances be running. Ensuring the titles differ is necessary if there is a chance the script may be run in multiple instances at the same time. Unfortunately %RANDOM% is not ...

It becomes Very easy if you use a title to flag your script. @Echo off Set /A UID=%random% %% 10000 Title %~n0_%UID% 2> nul (For /F "tokens=2 Delims=: " %%G in ( 'Tasklist /Fi "windowtitle eq %~n0_%UID%" /Fi "imagename eq cmd.exe" /FO:List ^| Findstr.exe /LIC:"PID"' )Do Set "%~n0_%UID%=%%G") Set %~n...

I've done a few such games myself - Connect 4, Conways game of life, Tetris, and my own game, Ampersand Hunters. Typically speaking, a source file is not necessary. Often, the simplest approach is to assign a state value to the Y;X coordinates, then use a pair of nested for /L loop to test the state...

A very interesting method - unfortunately I found it to be noticeably slower than loading a file into a set of associated variables and accessing the nTh token. May be more efficient for larger files - I haven't tested it to that extent.

This can be accomplishd fairly easily using some macro's to define arrays and return variables structured in a way that allows reference to line y value x: @Echo off rem /* Increments line count ; assigns line to indexed variable */ Set "Defline=Set /A "Str{i}+=0 + 1"& Set Str[!Str{i}!]=" rem /* ite...

Decided to try my hand at a pure batch Tetris [ no powershell or external exe's at this point ]. Game uses Vt Escape control character - so unfortunately windows 10 only I was somewhat lazy with the piece rotation routine- I adapted some routines for flipping / mirroring 'images' from one of my prev...

I've been playing around with it again, as using a findstr regular expression as an argument to the GetIn input function makes the length argument and the for loop choice method of input somewhat redundant. The below uses only 2 arguments for the input function: Arg1 - return var name. Arg 2 - Finds...

Disinclined to test this. As a new user you are an unkown quantity offering download of a zip containing unkown contents / code / virus or malware.

Not to say thats your intent, theres just no reason for anyone to take that risk.

easiest way is to use findstr to check the entered string is in the sensor serialisation file and use conditional operator || to loop back to retry if not I've modifying the script to pass the character range for the Serial # in the format used by findstr, to display remaining serial numbers that ma...
