- Description:
-
- Steenburgh's Stuff is a set of 21 separate batch file utilities which
- together comprise a complete batch file programming system. With
- Steenburgh's Stuff, you can create complete miniature applications and
- handy utility files normally within reach only of professional
- programmers. Advanced video, music, environment, string manipulation,
- and interactive features are all within your grasp.
-
- Make your batch files interactive with INPUT and BATBOX. The premier
- interactive batch utility, INPUT permits you to receive keypress or
- string input and return an errorlevel or environment string. INPUT can
- provide a full-color, custom prompt; a range of default values including
- simple Y/N, key lists, and default strings; input constraints such as
- fixed-length fields for strings and case sensitivity; and many more
- features. BATBOX provides a simple way to display a colorful batch file
- menu of up to 10 items, with selections passed through errorlevel or
- environment variable.
-
- Take control of your system with three utilities, CHKDRV, CHKPRN, and
- CHKSYS. Use these three utilities to determine the status of your
- printer; the presence, size, and readiness of disk drives; or the
- presence of system components and drivers such as EMM386, Microsoft
- Windows, ANSI.SYS, or any of a dozen other characteristics.
-
- Make your system sound off with SOUNDER and MUSIC. These two handy
- utilities are great for generating colorful replacements for your
- monotonous "system beep" or for playing simple melodies through your PC
- speaker. A large selection of music data files is included in the
- package, and you can easily create your own with no prior musical
- training or knowledge simply by following the enclosed instructions!
-
- KLS and WRITE give you full control of your video screen. More than just
- a simple replacement for the CLS command, KLS allows you to clear the
- screen in color, set the border color, switch to and from 43/50-line
- extended video modes, and report the type of video adapter and amount of
- video memory installed, reported via the errorlevel. WRITE allows you to
- display simple lines of text in full color anywhere on the screen, or to
- display ASCII files quickly and in color one screen at a time.
-
- The "mother of all DOS filters," SIFT gives you the power to manipulate
- command output in a number of powerful ways. Combine standard search
- functions with case conversion, truncation, inversion, and other handy
- string manipulation functions and you have a powerful tool indeed!
-
- SteenburghÆs Stuff comes with a number of sample applications that will
- impress you with their power. you'll never believe what a batch file can
- do with Steenburgh's Stuff!
