Solve : Specific Key press detection?

Answer»

Hello there!

I was MAKING a COMPLICATED batch program when I decided I wanted the user to be able to say press 1 to do something, and press 2 to something else.

I have seen it done before. Heck, I even copied it into notepad and ran it before, but I did not save it.

Any method will work fine, but I would prefer something maximum of 10 lines if possible.

Thank you in advance.for getting user input in DOS batch, use set /pMore secure, in windows 7 use "choice"As mentioned above:

choice.exe is not AVAILABLE in XP but it has the advantage of single key entry to do things.
For XP you can use choice.exe from Win9x etc or GET a clone of it, which you can find with google.

type choice /?
for the help.Thank you very much, Lemonilla and foxidrive, I did choice /? and got the INFORMATION I needed.
From what I had read, I thought Choice.exe was a sort of plugin, and If I wanted to share the program, that wouldn't be good.
Now, I know different though.
I suppose that means this case is CLOSED!
