Scripting under dos

[Kyme]

Hello forum,

I have a small question, i searched but i didn't found something precise so i will ask you guys,

Autoit it's able to make apps for dos?, i mean under dos, without windows.

The thing that it interest me if i'm able to create a exe to print a message in dos, like "echo" in bat but to be exe and be able to run under dos

Thank you.

Regards, Emanuel

Use ConsoleWrite to write in your DOS console, and compile the script in CUI mode with AutoIt3Wrapper GUI (check the Create CUI instead of GUI EXE checkbox)

Works only with DOS from Windows !!

AutoIt scripts only work under windows, a command prompt is a windows program. There is no DOS in a modern windows os.

If you are looking to compile an EXE for a true DOS environment (like FreeDOS or MSDOS5), then there are several languages with free compilers around on the net.  There are evern utilities to compile batch scripts into EXEs.

What to recommend depends a lot on what languages you know.

Here is one link to get you started.
