Re: Increasing text size in a batch file

There is only one problem. How do I run code that I have already made with this preset? for example, i tried to do @echo off reg import tinytonCMD.reg cd Kernel start "game.bat" exit That doesn't work for some reason, it will start the game without the preset in the registry file. It works fine with...

Increasing text size in a batch file

Hi I'm making a program in batch and I need the text to be bigger without altering anything at the properties menu.
It doesn't matter if it's an external command or pure batch, anything works.
Thanks

This is really stupid but

Is it possible to send a notification to a totally different computer in some way with batch?
This is probably seeming pretty ridiculous but just like some way to detect that something triggered in the batch file on the other computer

Maze game questions

Hello. I've got a maze game that I'm trying to make. I want it to have collision, an array of 10 maze "rooms" that the file can procedurally generate, and a monster that moves by itself. I've got the prodecurally generated part down (probably), and collision will take a long time but it's possible, ...

Re: How to return ascii value in 'bg _Kbd'

@aGerman I have. On this post (https://www.dostips.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4094) it states there is an option called "_Kbd" to wait until a key was pressed. @penpen The reason I'm using _Kbd is to wait 3 seconds to give you time to press a key, The issue with Kbd is you have to press a key instead...

How to return ascii value in 'bg _Kbd'

I'm using BG.EXE 2.5 by @carlos on Windows 10
My code is

Code: Select all

@echo off
echo Press any key.
bg.exe _Kbd
timeout 3 /nobreak >nul
echo %ERRORLEVEL%
pause
exit
But when I press a key, it doesn't return a value in ERRORLEVEL, instead 0.
How do I fix this?

Re: How to make a custom mouse cursor in batch?

@ShadowThief


Well, are there any tricks in the WIN32 api or C++ for this?
Again, I can't code in C++ or use the Win32 Api.

Re: How to make a custom mouse cursor in batch?

Well, I'm dumb as a rock when it comes to Win32 API and programming
Are there any currently published external commands to accomplish this?
