Building Scripts This chapter provides guidelines for using tools to build scripts, and also provides two complete script skeletons:templates that can be used as starting points for customized scripts. BAT script library source code is presented and described in detail. This library contains many useful procedures that can be accessed directly from custom scripts.
BAT script library. However, certain special script requirements place two specific constraints on this editor: First, some scripts require trailing spaces at the end of a line for example, the PJCOUNT.
BAT script of Chapter 6. Therefore, check that the editor does not automatically strip trailing white space from lines. BAT script of this chapter. Therefore, make sure that any editor you use does not convert tab characters into spaces or vice versa.
The Windows Notepad editor correctly handles both trailing spaces and literal tab characters. These can be removed when development is complete. Add PAUSE commands before a critical part of a script, so that the script can be stopped if something appears to be wrong. Most of these techniques are highlighted in the sample script presented in this chapter. Standard Script Skeleton Figure 5. BAT to a new script file. Copy Code.

Layout: fixed fluid. United States. First Prev Next. Fine thing mloibl Feb Not that I can use these things by not I think its important that a developer is familiar with batch-processing.
Is this a joke? Kastellanos Nikos. Does this think really exist? Re: Is this a joke? Well, at least one uses it - me - for years already and hopefully for years to come If you are administrator you will appreciate the power of these scripts and you can often spare to use Perl. Thanks for remind me. Batch scripting will outlive us all. The batch interpreter opens the batch file, reads a command line, closes the batch file, and executes the command. Then it reopens the batch file, seeks to the last position, reads a line, closes the batch file and executes.
And so on. That means you can edit a batch while it is running. There are many other scripting languages that are a lot cleaner, safer, more powerful and easier to read Perl, python, PHP, powershell just to name a few. But those are all memory resident. That's the price you pay for a more complex grammar. For some applications, only batch scripting is suitable. Hahaha Feb Now, I known I will not buy the book Re: Hahaha Feb Thats a bit unfair.
Tim Hill has written a second book called Windows Windows Script Host, and that's probably what you are looking for. I have both books and I can only say that they are worth every penny. Re: Heu sorry Feb Yes I admit It was unfair about the quality of the book. My apologize on that point. If the length is not specified, then it defaults to the remainder of the variable value.
As of Windows , if either number offset or length is negative, then the number used is the length of the environment variable value added to the offset or length specified. Finally, support for delayed environment variable expansion has been introduced in Windows Delayed environment variable expansion is useful for getting around the limitations of the current expansion which happens when a line of text is read, not when it is executed.
The following example demonstrates the problem with immediate variable expansion:. So the IF inside the compound statement is really comparing "before" with "after" which will never be equal. Similarly, the following example will not work as expected:. So the actual FOR loop we are executing is:. Delayed environment variable expansion allows you to use a different character the exclamation mark to expand environment variables at execution time. If delayed variable expansion is enabled, the above examples could be written as follows to work as intended:.
This is actually really silly bcase any number of programs could put a file there of that size, and you can wrap BO to be any size you want - but it is a neat little hack and shows some advanced grepping and looping that you can do in a batch file.
You will note that we call mailto. Ok here are some good registry hacks to put in the login script for use in the nt section of the script only So now when you hit ctrl-alt-del to login, you will get a nice little message that you have to say ok to first.
This is good because you can inform people of things like 'all usage is monitored' blah blah - mine looks like this:. This is a private computer system on a private computer network. ALL access is logged and monitored - you should not log on if you object to this policy.
Unauthorized users are not allowed, and any attempt to enter the network or this system without permission will result in civil and criminal liabilities. If you do a lot of messages and add nifty stuff like ascii art and go nuts like that my netowrk has a cool ascii art screen that comes up and pauses with the sleep command for a second or two you may want to clear the screen between messages or groups of messages - just add this command in your script wherever necessary:. Also, the screen saver that I set in the windows nt portion of the script cannot be done in windows 95 - I tried it for weeks but it won't happen.
You see, the win95 screen saver applet works a bit differently, and there is no registry entry for which screen saver to use even though there is a registry entry for all other aspects of the screen saver - it's weird but true Finally, I cannot stress enough how important it is to have a separate section for nt and 95 - as we saw drive mapping is different betwen the two, and there are some registry entries you can change in nt and not on Your email address will not be published.

Introduction Whenever a Windows client, be it a Windows NT Server, Workstation, or Windows 9x, logs onto a Windows NT domain, the machine will check to see if the user logging on has a login script specified in their profile. Trick 1 - Determining the OS the user is logging into Certain commands and procedures that can run in a login script are not applicable in certain operating systems more on these procedures later.
