Hi y'all. I wanted to know, is there a centralized list of knowledge to optimize performance in batch files? Readability and maintainability is not a concern - I'll be using these tips and trips to auto-generate some fast batch code at some point in the future. Currently, I've assembled this list of...

Hi, I recently got this message printed to me - is this documented anywhere? is this known? https://upl.sirjosh3917.com/ShamelessButterfly.png This message I did not write: ****** B A T C H R E C U R S I O N exceeds STACK limits ****** Recursion Count=593, Stack Usage=90 percent ****** B A T C H PRO...

Here, look at this. @echo off set /a iteration=0 :S echo # echo # # echo # # echo # # echo # DISCO! # echo # # echo # # echo # # echo # call :col %iteration% set /a iteration=%iteration% + 1 cls if %iteration% == 6 set iteration=0 goto s :col if %~1 == 0 color a if %~1 == 1 color b if %~1 == 2 color...

Can we at least have two sections? One for batch questions and the other for releases? I'd like to have my releases and applications (peas) to download one one side of my plate, and questions (corn) on the other. It'd make it easier then to have both peas and corns all jumbled in the middle, and it'...

I released NETCHK for a different forum, but I believe it holds some value here. You open it with notepad, set the .NET Framework, and then bundle it with your .NET X.X application. NETCHK automatically checks .NET Framework with your OS version to make sure you are capable of getting .NET X.X You m...

Wouldn't it be better if the forum had multiple sections, for a cleaner forum?

e.g.

"Batch File Releases"
"External EXE Releases"
"Batch Questions"
"Forum Discussion"

Is this not what you're looking for?

I am afraid I don't understand the purpose of this program. If the idea is to avoid the problems that may happen when the user input is expanded via %standard% expansion, just use !delayed! expansion instead... Antonio Oh... My bad... I mean I guess it has some use when not using setlocal enabledel...

So we all know that just about any batch file can become hacked by typing in "&call LeetBatchFileToGiveMeAllTheHackingPower.bat" whenever it prompts you with input. SANITIZE.EXE fixes this, by doing the following: 1) getting the user input 2) removing all instances of "&"...

I'm not entirely sure, but is it possible you could do something along the lines of

for any chars that happen to make the batch script mad?

Ahh, silly me. I completely forgot about those
Thank you however for clearing that up

I'm being weird only for fun in this scenario and I came across this weird thing: Why won't this work? @set "a=@set " %a%1=TEST %a%b=ING @echo %1%%b% ::The result SHOULD be "TESTING", but no, for it is only "ING" So my question is why? I ran into this in C# where I coul...

Have you ever used IEXPRESS.EXE only to realize that it requires an exe to launch your SED - not a batch file? INIT.EXE is a very small and simple tool designed to fix that. It works very simple - it runs a batch file called "init.bat". Source code is on github and the releases are on gith...

I'd just think to share my findings as I wanted to show all visible directories, visible files, invisible directories and invisible files.
Tell me if you found this useful.

Just a silly question I had. Does an attachment's download link stay the same even after changing the file (and giving it the exact same name)?
What are the rules for the download links of attachments programmatically?
