About "Already.Com"
What "Already" does is it checks it's own date/time stamp (and
apparently this date is also stored inside the program) against the
computer's date/time and, if it finds the date is the same, it does
nothing except continue returning while returning an ErrorLevel of 1.
If, on the other hand, it finds that the system date is previous to
its own it changes its date/time stamp (and the date that's stored
internally in the program) to that of the system and then returns an
ErrorLevel of 0.
You can use "Already" to check for things you need to do each day, but
only once each day. If used properly, this little program will
eliminate unnecessarily repetitious tasks should you find that you have
to boot your computer more than once per day.
And example of how to use this program follows:
Already
If ErrorLevel 1 Goto Skip
Priority ────┐
Cls │
BakNote ├──── These things will be done only once per day.
Cls │ (Executed when ErrorLevel 0)
Mode CO80 ────┘
:Skip <──────────── Items below this tag will be done at every boot.
1DirPlus (Executed when ErrorLevel 0 or 1)
This program came from a script file found in the October 1991 issue
of PC Computing. . . Enjoy.
