INTRODUCTION TO BATCH MENUING via CHOOSE
CHOOSE provides an easy to use, yet powerful, means of menu controlled
branching within the AUTOEXEC or other BATCH stream.
A system administrator can use CHOOSE to organize a complex DOS environment
so that users of the system may run programs under the proper directories by
simply making menu selections -- that is, without an understanding, or the
keying, of long input strings, e.g., CD\DOCS\BUSINESS\SALES ...
This text is being displayed as a result of a "TYPE MM_INT.SDX" command that
has been executed from the batch file MENU.BAT as a result of making the
first selection on the main menu.
A significant difference between this demonstration batch file and a batch
file that you might create to streamline and organize actual productive work
is that this batch file executes commands like "TYPE" and "DIR" where your's
might change drives and directories, copy files, download fonts, and run
programs such as Windows, WordPerfect and 1-2-3.
