CommandPromptPortable Own System Tools?

Windows Command Prompt Default has copy and del as commands.
And I made some tools so it would like more like Linux.
How can I add the tools. For cmd?

Can that be done?

Cheers,
Robin

commandprompt.bat

You can add those tools to the portable drive (I would suggest PortableApps\CommandPromptPortable\Data) and then add the following to PortableApps\CommandPromptPortable\Data\Settings\commandprompt.bat:

SET PATH=$~d0\PortableApps\CommandPromptPortable\Data\;$PATH

Commandprompt.bat runs when you start up CommandPromptPortable and adding that line will add your tools to the path, assuming they are in X:\PortableApps\CommandPromptPortable\Data (if X is the portable drive letter).

Doesnt work?

I changed my App\DefaultData\Batch\commandprompt.bat to:
@echo off
SET PATH=$~d0\bin\;$PATH
color 07
prompt $p$g
title Blackshell
cls
ver
cd\

in the folder:
PENDRIVE\bin\
I have the programs:
- netcat
- ls
- cat
- nano
- mkdir

But, well it doesnt work.
I guess I do some thing really stupid..
I cant use the commands when I am not in the directory..?

Tell me what I did wrong please

Cheers,
Robin

Oops..

Heh, the funny part is I had %'s in there at first and changed them thinking I was putting NSIS code in there. I'm at an IT conference, my brain is fried.
