You could also save/load with only values, like ( echo %highscore% echo %playername% echo %points% ) > savegame.sav and load them with < savegame.sav ( set /p highscore= set /p playername= set /p points= ) The first part simply redirects the echo outputs to a file. The loading part using also file redirection, but in … Read more
for /f tokens^=2-5^ delims^=.-_^” %j in (‘java -fullversion 2^>^&1’) do @set “jver=%j%k%l%m” This will store the java version into jver variable and as integer And you can use it for comparisons .E.G if %jver% LSS 16000 echo not supported version .You can use more major version by removing %k and %l and %m.This command prompt … Read more
Some time ago I posted a method that gives precise timing with delay intervals from 15 milliseconds on. This is a copy of the entire post. I think I achieved a milliseconds delay with precise timing when the delay is small. I used an hybrid Batch-JScript solution with WScript.Sleep method, but in order to avoid … Read more
The shortest way (without requiring 3rd party downloads) would be to use PowerShell. set “str=The quick brown fox” for /f “usebackq delims=” %%I in (`powershell “\”%str%\”.toUpper()”`) do set “upper=%%~I” A faster way but still using less code than any pure batch solution would be to employ WSH. @if (@CodeSection == @Batch) @then @echo off & … Read more
I use this script: //////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Deletes file older than a number of days // in the current directory //////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Usage: wscript DeleteOlderThan.js [#Days] // By default, remove files older than 30 days //////////////////////////////////////////////////////// function removeDays(date, nDays) { var dateRet = date return dateRet.setDate(date.getDate() – nDays); } function addSlash(strPath) { var c = strPath.substr(-1, … Read more
I was having the same problem yesterday, I did some research and this worked for me. EDIT: This is NOT the same code as the other one. @Echo Off SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion for /F “tokens=1,2 delims=#” %%a in (‘”prompt #$H#$E# & echo on & for %%b in (1) do rem”‘) do ( set “DEL=%%a” ) call … Read more

Windows batch scripting certainly does not have any formal exception handling – hardly surprising considering how primitive the language is. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think effective exception handling could be hacked up. But then some amazing discoveries were made on a Russian site concerning the behavior of an erroneous GOTO statement … Read more
That’s what I found (^^) @echo off setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION echo I want to go out with a bang^^!
Modify the batch file to START both programs, instead of STARTing one and CALLing another start C:\Users\Yiwei\Downloads\putty.exe -load “MathCS-labMachine1” start “” “C:\Program Files (x86)\Xming\Xming.exe” :0 -clipboard -multiwindow If you run it like this, no CMD window will stay open after starting the program.
