I have Take Command v18.0 When I run the following batch file: set start_year=2015 set end_year=2016 echo start_year=%start_year% echo end_year=%end_year% set FISC=FY%start_year:~-2%-%end_year:~-2% echo FISC=%FISC% the result is: FISC=FY- When I run it under Windows CMD the result is...

Perfect that's exactly what I needed. TCSTART.BTM I set the path to my TCSTART.BTM file in Options -> Configure TCC -> Startup (tab), created my TCSTART.BTM file with a line to define my alias, and it worked! Nice!

Any examples of defining an alias in TCMD.INI file? (Can that be done?)

Is there a DOS command that will do a hex dump of a file? Something like Take Command's LIST /X for people who don't have Take Command?

That was it! Thank you.

I enter 'devenv' and TCC brings up Visual Studio 2008. But the location of 'devenv' isn't in the Path environment variable, and it doesn't work if I bring up a 'cmd' prompt. How does TCC know where to look to find 'devenv'?

Brilliant! All I need to do is rename the file from .BAT to .BTM . I'll give that a try.

OK I'm no expert at Take Command probably didn't ask the question right, so here's an example: If I go to START -> ALL PROGRAMS -> ACCESSORIES -> COMMAND PROMPT, and enter the command: >COPY X.TXT Y.TXT it replies, "1 file(s) copied." If instead I start up the TC command prompt with the black...

what would a DOS command be that says run this batch file using TCMD (instead of running using whatever the default is that's not TCMD)?

OPTIONS -> CONFIGURE TCC -> COMMAND LINE(tab) -> History File, field is blank. I searched C drive for TCSTART, no hits.

Is there a way to speed up the startup of TCMD.exe? It takes like 5 seconds to come up.

I need a working example of how to use @COMPARE. I can not decipher the cryptic syntax. Then wrap it in an IF statement so I see the structure. Say I have files test1.exe and test2.exe, and I want to print out a message if they match or not.
