Subject: BATCHLOG.EXE
Date: January 5, 1994
BATCHLOG is a non-memory resident program to facilitate
log keeping during a batch file. BATCHLOG creates and appends to
a text file in the current directory with the name BATCH.LOG.
The output format is:
YY-MM-DD ! HH:MM:SS ! "Notes entered on the command line."
Usage is: BATCHLOG [/T] [/B] [/S] [/Fdrive\directory\filename.exe] Your notes
Do not enter the square brackets. The purpose of the brackets is to
indicate the switches that they enclose are optional.
The switches usage is:
/T (or -T), Draws a line across the top of the entry. For marking the
start of a logging session.
/B (or -B) Draws a line across the bottom of the entry. For marking
the end of a logging session.
/S (or -S) Suppresses the output to the screen;
/F (or -F) Changes the default file name, BATCH.LOG, to the
drive:\directory\filename of the user's choice.
Example: /fC:\FD\FD.LOG will write to FD.LOG in directory
C:\FD.
The maximum number of individual words in the command-line user remark
is limited to fifteen, unless the remark is inclosed by quotation marks.
The program evaluates a quotation string as one "word".
DOS errors such as non-existent directory or write-protected disk will
cause BATCHLOG to exit with an errorlevel other than zero.
This program has not been extensively tested. Determine its suitability
for your usage before committing it to unattended batch file use.
