re: Silly batch file tricks, redirecting stdout into an evironment variable and %~dp0

Alexei,

What version of Windows are you running?

If it's XP, you can get a list of processes with tasklist. It may work with Vista, too, but I don't think in 2k.

I'd use GNU sed to grab the process/line you want. It doesn't seem to glue very well to tasklist if you try to pipe the output straight into sed, but you can send the process list to a file first, then sed will do fine.

If you have Powershell aka ps (aka Monad aka msh), you can use get-process.

I suppose this makes sense since .NET 3.0 and 3.5 both run on the "2.0" framework and it wouldn't make sense to have 3 branches of .NET 2.0 runtime compilers.

However I wonder how many of the .NET 3.5 features are just compiler tricks.

Hi,

I need to work with legacy batch files, and I am trying to figure out an easy way to check if a task is currently running. I am planning to put the batch job in scheduler and only run a task if it's not running.

This helped me. I am using this in Automated setup scripts for Sahrepoint using PSCONFIG and STSADM. I have lot of files in different directories which were needed to be installed by this script. I have to run this script from the lcation where it was stored.

This post helped me in getting location independence and included this script in Windows directory so call it from anywhere this is what is use

pushd .

cd %~dp0

..... automated script for sharepoint installation.....

popd

Thanks and Regards,

Sameer Dhoot.

re: IE 7 and Firefox browsing tip...open links in new tab by clicking your mouse scroll wheel

In Firefox you can use the button wheel to open site´s in new tabs. (Click with the wheel the "Go arrow") but in IE you can´t...you have to press alt+enter.

I wonder if microsoft didnt think on that...its extremely handy
