Will just mention/bring up that at least one original version of the hobbit
interactive fiction game was done using dos batch scripts, but, yes, not the
easiest/simplest/best idea/approach as such...<smile>

Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Programming in Batch.
Hi Michael,
While it is true that writing Microsoft batch scripts are easier than
traditional programming you are not going to be able to write games in
Microsoft batch script. The purpose of batch scripting is totally
different from a traditional programming language. Basically, the only
purpose of batch scripting is to string Dos commands together and
execute them in a certain order. Other than that it isn't of much use
to you or anyone else.
My advice is if you are really serious about writing games why not try
an entry level programming language like Python. It is very simple,
pretty straight forward, and there is loads of free documentation on
the internet for Python. I think you will find it serves your needs
better than batch scripting.
Cheers!

Hello.
As alot of you might know I have been wanting to create games for the
blind.
However I am not able to understand programming.
I have heard that writing batch files are easier then normal programing.
So what I am getting at, is I am wondering if anyone knows of any
sources that I can go to learn how to make a batch file?
Thanks.
