I'm trying to figure something out with the new Command Prompt Portable.
I used to be able to pass parameters to cmd.exe, such as "/c backup346" to call a batch file (with /c to close the window at the end).
I've looked at CommandPromptPortable.nsi, and I don't think it supports parameters.
Can anyone confirm this?

Yes but that only helps if I always want Command Prompt Portable to do the same thing, doesn't it?
Anyway, it's no biggie, just thought I'd ask.
the batch file is for "always".

SO does someone know if there is a way to make a dos game/program have a script run before the game starts, to open the CommandPromptPortable first?
Or is that gonna get added into the next gen of PAM so DOS programs open correctly, consistently?

Hello Group;
Is there a list of obtions some where that can be added to the batch file. John mentions that you can change things like color and columns. Where can I find a list of these and how to use them.

Just search the web for details on batch files and DOS commands.
