A BAT(batch) file is a text file with a .bat extension with DOS commands within the file. It's basically a script.

This is a great and wholesome Bat file:

echo.

Funny Matt, you can't spell "Making" and yet you can do BAT files OK. Is this because they don't work when spelled incorrectly? So you *HAVE* to get spelling and syntax right in the PC-world.
I wish the real world was the same: wrongly spelled words just didn't work!
Person A:
"Hey man, I definately liek your hat!"
Person B:
"Errors in statement, Line 1, char 17 - "i" expected.
Line 1, char 23, unrecognised command.
Please try again."
