Maybe he means he wants to make a batch script that has all of the features as an operating system (eg. a window manager, terminal and some programs) which is inside a command prompt window. I understand that this wouldn't actually have any advantage as you'd be running windows as well, but it's a g...

Of course! *facepalm* I remember using that a while ago.

Thanks for that, I got it to work perfectly!

Hi guys. I've looked this script over thousands of times now and I haven't found the problem. I think I need a fresh pair of eyes to look at it. As part of a program, I have a configuration section that writes some values from the user into a config file. This code writes to the file: set /p "A...

C/C++ - This is where I come in
Does anyone want a program (an exe) to take input for batch scripts without showing the text that's being typed in?

Thanks,

Yeah that's what I thought.. :/ Time to decompile Windows, edit it and recompile The only problem with that batch file is that it won't run as a result of a shutdown... I think that's what he wants.

Correct, runonce is for when the system is starting. Maybe we could rename shutdown.exe to something else and put another exe in its place.

Taripo, I wrote a program that moves the cursor to a certain position - it's called gotoxy. It's on the page at: http://batchbin.ueuo.com/programs.php but as you mentioned, you'd have to keep re-writing the text.....

EDIT: removed title command thing.

Foxidrive, it is that related to a thread on this forum? If so, please send me the link to it.. I'm interested..

EDIT: I found the thread you're talking about, foxidrive. I'll look at writing something for him.

Thanks

Anyone...? Thoughts and ideas..?

Hi guys Because of this thread: http://www.dostips.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2734 I ended up writing a couple of simple programs (which you can find on my website - m). I've found them to be very useful and orange_batch showed quite some interest in them. They do not require any extras like DLLs or ...

Firstly: Why are you in big need of it?
Secondly, please make an attempt to use correct spelling... 'cud' isn't could, it's: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cud

And just because I'm the sort of guy who would notice and get annoyed about it.... It's Telnet not Telenet.

I do appoligize, aGerman and other high-up-there users if you consider this as assisting this guy...

I understand that there may be a bit of a language barrier, but can you please add more details to your question?
