Selection window to select an item (line) from a text file and pass it to the batch process.
Wselect is a program that offers a window with a list of items for selection in a batch (CMD/BAT) process. The items are read (line by line) from a file that can be generated in the batch process. The file may have any number of lines with anything you wa
User's selection by double click or Cursor up/down + Enter. Abort with Escape or by closing the window.
Wselect returns the selected item text embedded in a given text string through the token "$item" (not case sensitive). This way you can produce messages or commands.
For example, if the given text string is "SET MyVar=$item", the token $item will be replaced by the selected item. Wselect also returns the selected item number by errorlevel (1..254).
The output can be redirected to a text file or to a batch file for subsequent execution.
Syntax:
Wselect ListFile ListHeader OutputString [options] [> OutputFile]
Options to handle OEM (DOS) code and quote marks.
Note:
"OEM" is the character/code assignment used under DOS. It is different from Window's ANSI format only for non-standard characters (code above 127), like "���".
Double quote marks are required for each of the three parameters if they contain any spaces or delimiters. All parameters and options must be separated by blank space (no commas!).
As a special feature (and in addition to the /quote option) Wselect will replace two single quote marks ('') with one double quote mark (") in the OutputString.
Here are some key features of "Wselect":
· window centered on screen or in console window
· menu mode, font size and background color
· fixed-width font for lists
· handling of OEM (DOS) characters and quote marks
