The ALL utility enables you to execute one or more operating system
commands on all files in a given list of files. Single file
specification portions may be used and manipulated for flexible
processing.

Optionally, ALL creates a command file containing commands as well as
user input required by interactive kinds of programs.

In addition to creating command files ALL can also produce a normal data
file. Thus you can also use it to perform different kinds of textual
transformations on files.

Programs as well as user defined fields found in the records of the
input file can be used to construct commands for execution or to produce
data files. In this respect, ALL can be a faster and easier to use
substitute for programs such as AWK or Perl whenever its more limited
facilities are sufficient for your purposes.

CutParam can be handy for those who use command line compilers, linkers,
installation or backup batch processes, etc., or those who would like to
extend the automatic effect of some extension linked application
starter. You do not need to supply your filename manually without a
*.BAT file extension if it was asked to.

If you call cutParam in a batch file you can cut this extension off and
use the name of the file without the extension to produce other files
with the same name but with other extension(s). You can also use the
extension alone to perform extension dependant process.

Envy is a stand-alone program that provides 38 new subcommands for use
in batch files (spanning string-manipulation, mathematics, bitwise
operations, comparsions, date & time functions, random numbers, file
I/O, and text parsing).

Envy is able to alter environment variables in the parent command.com
environment, greatly simplifying many programming tasks which must be
accomplished via a batch file.

Examples:

NOW DIR *.TXT ">" [yr]-[mo]-[dy].DIR will generate a file called
99-11-13.TXT (if run on 13th November 1999).

NOW ECHO CREATED ON [day] [dy] [month] [year] AT [hh]: [mm] ">>" LOGFILE
will append "CREATED ON Saturday 13 November 1999 AT 16: 59" into the
file,

There are no known problems with the Year 2000 provided that the PC and
DOS are Y2K compliant.
