Batch Distribution Channel

[Tesrym]

Is this something you guys would be interested in? I guess it would.
Make a batch, submit to a distributor, let others download easily (Think Steam, but completely free)
Also, if making this in batch, it would make a good project.
I will do a serious attempt this weekend, so I'll lurk here and see what people thinks.

I speak for myself, but it's hard to say. There are websites out there already, like ones owned by Microsoft, that use better languages like Powershell. The problem with batch is it has limited unicode support, and it can be localization-dependent (which can usually be worked around using calls to VBScript and WMI, but then you could argue it's not purely batch? not that anyone should care). I wonder what scripts could be so useful in general that they would merit distribution.

I also wonder if there might be some deliberation about finishing research on macros and working on a library before a step like that.

In any case, I think a pool on a website would be the best choice, not a platform. It could be browsed via a batch, but that's both unnecessarily complex and not too pretty to look at.

However, don't let that stop you from working on such a project for fun if you want to do it.
