Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Run bat files transparently
« on: February 15, 2006, 03:21 PM »
I started to thinking why I do not like Windows command line option so much. Well I use it a lot but I could get more from it.
One simple idea would be running some batch using scheduler that will backup my images from one harddrive to another. This would be simple copy command but... but it will open ugly command window that will fill my screen and got the focus.
So to get most out from command line I should be able to run it silently and log the output into file. One file per bat file execution for example. Name can be generated from bat file name adding number (or/and date) and .log extension. For example mybackup.2005-02-15.1.log.
