| will set errorlevel according to the position
| in the list, as determined by the commas. In
| this example, both "q" and "Q" are in
| position 5, so if "Q" is pressed, errorlevel
| will be set to 5. To allow alternatives for
| each position, such as pressing a number or
| the first letter of a command, the list could
| be given something like this: "1Mm, 2Rr, 3Cc,
| 4Qq", in which case pressing "1", "M" or "m"
| would be equivalent. The program also will
| allow a mouse to be used to make a selection
| and will set errorlevel the same as with the
| keyboard selection. This is the first simple
| batch file input utility we have seen that
| supports a mouse. (MorganSoft) (Reg.Fee: $?)

POWERBAT.ZIP 271186 06-22-94 PowerBatch 2.2 is a programming language and
| compiler for DOS. It does NOT compile
| existing batch files, as does TurboBat. It is
| instead a compiler that supports "batch file
| type commands," but which will not compile
| existing batch files without modification.
| Our impression is that PowerBatch is a little
| too complex for someone wanting to crank out
| an occasional compiled batch file or for
| someone not already familiar with programming
| concepts. On the positive side, PowerBatch
| adds about 40 new commands, and for the
| determined novice, PB is easier to learn
| than, say, QuickBASIC or Turbo Pascal, but
| then, it has a much narrower range of use as
| well. Other features include a box drawing
| command; a demo file that shows how to create
| professional pop-up type menus; and some
| additional utilities. (Joel P Harper) (ASP)

| able to anticipate what directory the user
| will be in. PPPD lets you save that
| information, change to another drive and
| directory to run a program, and then change
| back to the original drive and directory when
| done. Unlike similar utilities, it saves data
| to a temporary disk file rather than being a
| TSR or relying on space being available in
| the DOS environment. (Richard N. Wisan)

PREFIX.ZIP 2616 12-05-94 Prefix 1.0 will prepend a string onto the

RADBOX.ZIP 44476 08-10-94 RadioBox lets you display a mouse-aware,
| shadow-dropped menu box with a one line
| command. This is a classy way to get users to
| select options in batch files. Errorlevel is
| set to reflect the user's choice.
| Unfortunately, the 46k file size of RadioBox
| probably makes this unsuitable for
| distribution to others, but it is a nice way
| to jazz up the batch files on your own
| system. (Dave Nicholson) (Reg.Fee: $0)
READSCR.ZIP 4788 09-11-90 Read Screen compares text on the screen to
