Create and Edit Your Own Batch Files

Dr.Batcher
Technical

Back in the days before VBScript and PowerShell, we used batch files to automate tasks, first in MS-DOS and then in Windows. They were easy to make (just a text file in Notepad would do it) and easy to distribute. With the power of batch files, you could make backups, create playlists, delete temp files, install ActiveX libraries, rename files, and more! Why bother with specialized apps that only perform one of these functions?

What was true then is still true today! Dr. Batcher is a utility that helps you to craft batch files quickly and easily, even if you've never written a batch file before, and much more efficiently than using a text editor. Plus, Dr. Batcher features two different modes which are well suited to all levels of user proficiency. Create BAT files encoded for Windows or MS-DOS, and quickly convert text from one encoding type to the other.

Simple mode lets you edit batch scripts using visual editors and wizards -- perfect for those just getting into batch files. A second mode provides you with a professional script editor that features such bells and whistles as code tooltips, syntax highlighting and bookmarks. Even better, Dr. Batcher lets you switch between modes on the fly!

Packed with templates and examples to teach you the art of the batch file, Dr. Batcher is the perfect utility to automate your most tedious processes!

Who Needs Dr.Batcher?
You do if you've ever:

  • Accumulated many small utilities that were specially designed to serve limited automated functions.
  • Wanted to learn to create batch files using templates and examples.
  • Attempted to learn more complicated scripting programs with little success.

Real Users Say:

  • “I used to write batch files with help of Notepad, but Dr.Batcher lets you create them more quickly. You have all needful help on commands and their parameters and thus you have no need to search for this information in Windows Help. Still you have to know what do you want to do with help of the batch file you are creating :)”- Andrew Jaritsyn

    I am looking fro a tool, which allows batchfile-debugging, i.e. single-step run-through a batch-file, trace into another batch-file being called, being able to set breakpoints at certain lines and watch some vars (escpecially the errorlevel-value).

    Is something like this possible with Dr.Batcher too?

    In current version there is no integrated debugger in Dr.Batcher. But we are going to develop it in the following version in according to the user's feedback.

    Will the new version with the integrated debugger be free for people who buy this offer?

    What is the upgrade policy for this program?

    Michael R, you can simply insert lines to display values in your batch (command) file. I'm astounded that anyone would build a product like this at this time. The command interpreter is limited, bizarre, buggy, and seriously obsolete. I would be astonished if this supports all of the bizarre undocumented intricacies of command files, but I'm not going to test it. Windows has other scripting languages.

    What is the upgrade policy for this program?
    We will offer you special reduced price for major upgrades. Unfortunately I can't name the exact price for this upgrade right now because I don't know how much the third version will cost.
    Windows has other scripting languages.
    Tastes differ.
