Easy Batch Files with Batchrun

Posted Jan 24, 2005 by David Risley  

Batch files are a very nice way to bring automation to your PC and perform repetitive tasks quickly and without your attention. But, some people are turned off by the fact that you need to know command-line syntax to do anything with them. Well, Batchrun, from Outer Technologies, helps you.

“Batchrun will let you create batch files using a graphical interface. In the good old days of DOS .bat files took care of this task. They still do, but they’re not exactly user friendly. With Batchrun .brs batch files you can launch any number of programs or dialup connections with just a simple click. You can control the starting process with many properties like priority or run mode and control their behavior a tad. You can even do more than starting programs with the built-in file management functions like Copy, Rename, Makedir, Delete and End Process. Batchrun batch files can be launched from Explorer or placed in StartUp folder or on the Desktop.”
