 ss> What methods can I use to get a batch file in 4DOS to read parameters

Here Is How I Can Do That..

Note That I Used A simple Text File.. There Is Another Possibility To Use
It In Bynary Mode, So.. Just Look The {at}FileWriteB Function..


.oOo.oOo.oOo.oOo.oOo. Begin MAIN.BAT .oOo.oOo.oOo.oOo.oOo.
SetLocal
::
:: Getting Last Env And Print Them
::
Iff Exist Conf.Txt Then
        Set FileNum=%{at}FileOpen[Conf.Txt,Read]
        Set Conf1=%{at}FileRead[%FileNum]
        Set Conf2=%{at}FileRead[%FileNum]
        Echo.
        Echo Last Config: %Conf1 And %Conf2
        Echo.
EndIff
::
:: Getting new vars
::
Input New 1st Var: %%Conf1
Input New 2nd Var: %%Conf2
::
:: Saving Them
::
If Exist Conf.Txt Del Conf.Txt /Q
Set FileNum=%{at}FileOpen[Conf.Txt,Append]
Set Size1=%{at}FileWrite[%FileNum,%Conf1]
Echo.
Echo.
Echo Conf1 (%Size1 bytes) Written in Conf.Txt
Set Size2=%{at}FileWrite[%FileNum,%Conf2]
Echo.
Echo Conf2 (%Size2 bytes) Written in Conf.Txt
Echo.
Set End=%{at}FileClose[%FileNum]
If %End Eq 0 Echo All Done^Quit
Echo An Error Happend! :-(
