Re: date and time format inconsistencies

You can also use my wmiClass.bat program that access the WMI Classes in an efficient way via JScript code. For example: @echo off setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion for /F %%a in ('wmiClass OS LocalDateTime') do set "%%a" echo LocalDateTime=%LocalDateTime% for %%a in ("Year=0,4" "Month=4,2" "Day=6,2" "...

Re: How to ramdomly select test cases among the test suite to run daily?

Is MM/DD/YYYY your %DATE% format? If not, you need to adjust the m=%%a, d=%%b, values in the formula. Just open a cmd.exe command prompt window (click on Start, type cmd and select the black cmd.exe window), do a CD to the right directory, remove the @echo off line and run the program. You will see ...

Ok.

Re: How to ramdomly select test cases among the test suite to run daily?

Hmm... Although I completely understand what you need, there are several details that prevent me from writing any useful code. The most important point is: how do you know that a test case has already been run? Anyway, here there are a couple ideas: @echo off setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion set "bas...

One of those programs is Window.exe that allows to manage cmd.exe windows in several ways; for example, to position the window at any place in the screen. The Batch file below solve this problem using Window.exe au...

Re: how do you rename a file or a dir or a string name to be lowered?

Yes. The on screen help on REN command clearly specify: Change the name of one or more files. On the other hand, the help on MOVE command indicate: Move files and change the name of files and directories. Antonio PS - You should try to be much clear on your descriptions. Your problem is to rename a ...

Yes, you are right Sponge Belly. Ed Dyrenn first proposed this method: for /f "delims=#" %%a in ( '"prompt #$H# &echo on &for %%b in (1) do rem"' ) do ( set "%$Defines%=%%a" set "%$Defines%=!$BS:~0,1!" ) ... and then dbenham suggested this simplification: for /f %%a in ('"prompt $H&for %%b in (1) do...

Interesting! :) I translated your code to printf.exe (version 2.81 with \e as ESC and enabled Virtual Terminal Processing). Here it is: @echo off mode con cols=80 lines=24 cls printf "%%s\n" /* format to show strings */ ^ " S C R O L L I N G T E S T" OUT ^< ^ "\e[21;0H===============================...

Re: printf.exe: Arithmetic and Programming

I included \e as escaped char for ESC and enabled Virtual Terminal Processing mode in a new printf.exe version. I did a small test via printf "\e[104;93mbright yellow on bright blue\e[0m\n" and works correctly. However, I also tried printf "\e#3Double Height (implies Double Width)\n\e#4Double Height...
