#BatchFile
Before cloud storage, before SSDs... there was the greatest .BAT file I ever wrote. When you only had a 20MB hard drive, every byte had to count!

Petit script pour désactiver ou activer les mises à jours de Windows, virer la télémétrie, nettoyer les fichiers Windows Update persistants, vire Copilot, Cortona, etc.

My 3 preferred automation languages are:

1. POSIX sh(1) — avoiding Bashisms and non-portable shell features means less to worry about,
2. AppleScript — to automate parts of macOS's GUI not exposed to the shell,
3. PowerShell — because fuck writing batchfile scripts.

That covers each major OS.

BTW in terms of practical advice, I recommend using the app (SteamPipeGUI, I think it's called?) until you can sort of get it to work manually, then it has a button to export those settings to something you can invoke via command line / batchfile.

Gibts hier eigentlich NextCloud-Experten? Suche nach einer Möglichkeit die Synchronisierung auf dem PC über ein Batchfile-Kommando zu stoppen und zu starten.

I assure you, building something this way is not remotely psychotic.

Of course I 'cleverly' made a batchfile to copy and move the save-files after closing the game and restore them after death to continue the same character for longer...
And while typing this my google fu found it for you:

Batchfile saw its code size drop from 5.82 B to 5.06 B bytes this month, while weighted stars slid from 399 k to 346 k. Both metrics recorded their lowest monthly deltas on record, signaling a notable pullback. #GitTrends #github

Just checked the version you linked above (which seems to be a modernization from 1999), it does not seem to enforce permadeath either -- the "quit" menu has "backup and continue" and I was allowed to reload the backup after death, no batchfile necessary.

It just gave me a python script to automate the insertion of Freewrite text into Scrivener. It’s a feature I’ve been begging for forever. I’ll have to see if it works, but that was a nice treat. It’s not much more than a batchfile really, but every little helps.

Playing around with linux shell, windows powershell and windows batchfile. I will say I like using linux shell more than the other two. For those who use a Windows OS like me, you can emulate a linux terminal by using the Git Bash.
