- I need to track down a small program for use in batch files that
- will check to see if it is a certain day of the week and call a
- program or batch file if so.
- For example, when the user comes into work in the morning and
- boots up, a line in the autoexec would do something along the lines of
-
- "is_day tuesday tues.bat",
-
- so if today is tuesday it will call the batch file 'tues', otherwise
- the line will be ignored.
-
- Anyone know if a program such as this exists, or will I have to
- track down a compiler somewhere and roll my own?
