Answer» Hi guys, well am asking if there is anyone knowing where i can get the best batch programming book Hi guys, well am asking if there is anyone knowing where i can get the best batch programming bookCan i ask why are you learning batch? because i want to suggest to you to start with something better like vbscript or powershell (if you absolutely must work on Windows) or Python,Ruby,Perl (for cross platform system administration).

These are wise words. Quote from Raymond Chen's blog, The Old New Thing yesterday: He offered a TIP for Windows users to count the lines in STDIN like wc -l in *nix (some-command-that-generates-output | find /c /v ""), and explained how it arose because of a bug in find.exe that had to remain (as a feature) because batch scripts had been written that took advantage of it. (Due to an integer underflow bug, a string of length zero was treated as if it were a string of length 65536, which doesn't match anywhere, thus the null string never matches, and its negation always matches) Quote (REMEMBER, I provide the occasional tip on batch file programming as a public service to those forced to endure it, not as an endorsement of batch file programming.)well...thank u all for your great participation and the reason i want to study batch programming isn't quite clear but honestly its just for fun! and sure i'll study all of the other languages but just to start with batch programming cause i kinder love its scripts!!You go right ahead... have fun! Salmon Trout and ghostdog74 i thank u alot!!..i have found the book u send me a link and yeah..thank u guys very much!!
