Dos menu script
« on: March 29, 2005, 04:20:19 am »
Hi all,

Can anybody show me how to write a simple script for dos that lets me launch two seperate programs on bootup using either the '1' or '2' key?

Thanks

Sounds simple enough, but I can't tell how to do it.

I used to use a program called MenuWorks which would be easy to do this with.  It's probably Abandonware now and not exactly what you want.

The folks in the software forum could help you more though.

Look here, I did it.  Just download and modify my Autoexec.bat:
