Solve : Batch Message? |
|
Answer» What is the code to make a message appear in a batch file, and what is the code to make it wait for a set amount of time?
Code: [Select]echo text Code: [Select]echo text both work perfect, but is there a way to make it wait without displaying anything..., and how do i make it change the title of the DOS windowchanging title is just Code: [Select]title "enter title here" if you've got the >nul the waiting code shouldn't PRINT anythnig to the screen. alternative ping wait: Code: [Select] ping -n 'No. of second' 127.0.0.1>Nul where 'No. of seconds' is replaced by the number of seconds you want to wait. It's not particuarly accurate though.
