@ Renamed PC Magazine utility. BROWSE2.COM {DOS Power Tools/Reup disks}
# Created with PC Magazine's MAKECOM.BAS program {DOS Power Tools/Reup disks}
$ Adapted from an idea in either PC Mag or PC Resource. This one has safety
features builtin. It is better than Wenham's example which is a little
awkward.
^ This I got from a Public Brands Software disk. It is what they call
Bannerware (free but copyrighted). This disk it comes on has many
other similiar echo replacements.
& These I did 3 years ago on a Wang PC. I don't recall why I modified them
but the real dates were in 1987.

About Wenham Software's BATCOM:
They only certify the compiler for an IBM PC along with either PC-DOS 2.x
or PC-DOS 3.x. However, I have successfully used it on NEC 80286 (MS-DOS
3.2), Compaq 80286 (MS-DOS 3.3), Tandy 1100FD Laptop (MS-DOS 3.3) and
two other off brands I just can't recall. In the programs, I often
use ECHO. and ECHO/ for blank lines. Some earlier DOS versions just
don't allow this. I have avoided the @command (MS-DOS 3.3 & higher)
throughout.
Many of these programs are no more than examples of using BATCOM and
should be considered as such. I relinguish all rights and responsi-
bilities to these programs. They do have a certain amount of safeguards
builtin. The AT.BC program is a first draft. In trying to buildin maxi-
mum errorchecking along with redirection, I've yet to get it in a pol-
ished condition that will fully work regardless of user errors. Since
this is the first version (there are three others), it should be used
EXACTLY as the syntax screen shows.
The one vendor I know of that sells BATCOM is the Programmer's
Connection in North Canton, OH. There price is 55 bucks. There
catalogs are usually available quarterly at Software, Etc. and
B. Daltons.
If there are any questions on these files, or if anyone desires a
particular type of program within BATCOM's scope, I may have such
code available.
