Just for completeness, I did whip up a quick 8086 asm snippet for DEBUG. (I actually tried doing a 7-bit ASCII executable version, but it proved too tricky for the moment, so I've shelved that "weird" idea for now, heh. I could've just used UBE or COMT or whatever tools already exist, or even searched FASM's forum for inspiration, but I guess it's not too important unless somebody didn't already have DEBUG.) P.S. Timo's BAT FAQ wasn't as exhaustive as I thought. The only interesting trick was doing something like "echo. exit | command /c prompt set blah=$t", which still would've needed some fiddling with an external tool (esp. one not typically included in DOSes), so I didn't bother too hard thinking about that. But even he often uses sed or awk (or QBASIC) for some tricks. So I still don't think it's a horrible idea to include one (or both!) of those for FD 2.0 (or whatever). @echo off if not exist %0 %0.bat debug < %0 goto end n rand4.com rcx 20 a 100 mov ah,2C int 21 xor ax,ax mov al,dl and al,3 inc ax cmp al,0A sbb al,69 das xchg ax,dx mov ah,2 int 21 ret w Q :end ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Storage Efficiency Calculator This modeling tool is based on patent-pending intellectual property that has been used successfully in hundreds of IBM storage optimization engage- ments, worldwide.
