EscRun 1.0 - Documentation
(c) Copyright 1994, Paradigm Software, All Rights Reserved
EscRun.exe is a small utility to help control program loads in your
Autoexec.Bat file. If there is a program that you want to run
most of the time, but not always, than this utility can help.
EscRun allows you to specify an action to take by pressing <Esc>
within a time period you specify. If <Esc> was pressed, the
errorlevel is set to 1.
EscRun needs two paramters to run: the time in seconds to wait
for the <Esc> key to be pressed and the message to display during
the wait.
Usage
EscRun <delay> <message>
Both parameters are required
<delay> - This is the amount of time to wait for the user to press
the <Esc> key
<message> - This is the message to display. EscRun will append this
message to the words "Press <Esc> to " when it runs
Examples
@echo off
ESCRUN 5 "to load the network drivers"
IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO net
rem The end user did not load the network, so adjust
rem their path as required
GOTO end
:net
IPX
NETX
:end
The above example would allow the user 5 seconds to confirm that they
wanted to load the network drivers on their PC.
