Now if he's not too dumb,(and as he wants to program I suppose he isn't dumb) via that link and looking a bit further than his nose is he can find a site that is filled up with such batch thingies.
Here's a user input for example:

Code: Select all

&#58;&#58; input2.bat
&#58;&#58; get user input with verification and option to quit
@ECHO off
ECHO @PROMPT $N&#58;$_CD $P> %temp%.\setback1.bat
%COMSPEC%/E&#58;2048/C%temp%.\setback1.bat> %temp%.\goback.bat
DEL %temp%.\setback1.bat
FOR %%c in &#40;%temp%.\ CD&#41; do %%c %temp%.
 
&#58;again
SET input=
ECHO. Type input and press &#91;Enter&#93;.
FC.EXE CON nul /LB1 /N |DATE |FIND.EXE "1&#58;"> setinput.bat
ECHO &#58;loop > enter.bat
ECHO IF not "%%input%%"=="" SET input=%%input%% %%5>>enter.bat
ECHO IF "%%input%%"=="" SET input=%%5>> enter.bat
ECHO SHIFT >> enter.bat
ECHO IF not "%%5"=="" GOTO loop >> enter.bat
FOR %%c in &#40;call del&#41; do %%c setinput.bat
DEL enter.bat
IF not "%input%"=="" CHOICE.COM /N/CYQN " Is this correct? Yes, No or Quit "
IF not "%input%"=="" IF errorlevel 3 GOTO again
IF not "%input%"=="" IF errorlevel 2 SET input=
 
&#58;end
FOR %%c in &#40;call del&#41; do %%c %temp%.\goback.bat
IF not "%input%"=="" ECHO. Input was %input%
&#58;&#58;

Get it now MiniMax?

And what's your post has to do with his question MiniMax ?

1. No, I don't get it. My nose must be too short.
2. About as much as Larry Laffers?

I have an Idea...HAHAHA.

Post by **Larry Laffer** » Fri Jun 08, 2007 12:25 pm

Ah yes, you mentioned it before, and unless you're willing to tell us what that idea is, there's really, no need for you to mention everywhere that you got an idea!

And just so you know, some of us have more than one idea during a 5 minutes interval

Its already been done before for text adventures,but what if I can make the DB-Text thing I was talking about out of Batch with choice lists and stuff?

I think it would work!

Post by **wardrich** » Fri Jun 08, 2007 4:02 pm

You mean a batch text adventure game? Do you know how long and painful that would be? It wouldn't even be prod-worthy because the file would be MASSIVE.

Well,Im thinking of doing something more useful.

For starters clean up your room as your mom told you to do.

Good suggestion.

Here's my awesome batch version of CS.

Right click, save as. It's PERFECT.

Eco isn't a batch command.

Thunderdog · Post by **Thunderdog** » Sat Jun 09, 2007 12:02 pm

Just a minor coding bug/typo..Nothing TOO serious.

Post by **dosraider** » Sat Jun 09, 2007 12:38 pm

The reason I say you're a n00b isn't that typo. Everyone make those, and many of them.

The reason is that you didn't run at least once the final version before posting it, or you would have noticed it.

That's really n00bish.

tinman47 · Post by **tinman47** » Sat Jun 09, 2007 2:44 pm

ANOTHER IDEA !!!

How about if anyone has a batch
they want to share on DGF,post
it on this topic.
