[comp.os.msdos.misc] Any nice batch files for the following

carty@dteng1.enet.dec.com (Hugh Carty) (05/06/91)

Any store of .bat files out there which might help in the following

 need to run a menu like 

  1. Input Part number 
   
     then display it back to user on pc screen

 ask if this is correct, y/n ?

   Yes,go to server disk file service and convert this part number
   into  the file description it means ie this part number XXXXX tou
have choosen
   is for a PC with 1 mb of mem,+ dos 4.0 +windows +....

   is this what you want y/n ?

    User answers yes and batch file formats disk in logical partitions

     and then xcopys the r/o files from the server,does a disk compare of the 
     original and the copied one,and shuts down and reboots PC
     of the hard disk unit copy.

      WOW what a mouthful

     Any batch files with intercative input using basic,or C etc... would
     greatly help .

    I'm a virtual  BASIC ( no pun ) new user .

There are many asks around including mine in /pc/ts/tsbat24.arc. 
For others see e.g. our /pc/batchutil directory.

"The wares are available by anonymous ftp from garbo.uwasa.fi,
Vaasa, Finland, 128.214.12.37, or by using our mail server (use the
latter if, and only if you don't have anonymous ftp).  If you are
not familiar with anonymous ftp or mail servers, I am prepared to
send prerecorded instructions on request.  (If you don't get the
instructions from me within a few days, it will mean that your email
address cannot be reached by a simple email reply.  It that case,
contact your system manager for devicing a proper mail path for you,
because unless you do, you wouldn't be able to utilize the mail
server anyway.  If you are in North America first consider using an
ftp site near you to spare the overseas load.)"
