What is PDAILY
|
|||
|
|
--------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY allows the user to execute a set of DOS commands on a
|
|||
|
|
once per day basis. It is most useful for customizing your
|
|||
|
|
daily system startup procedure to perform some selected
|
|||
|
|
functions the first time the system is started each day and
|
|||
|
|
and to bypass them if the system is started again the same day.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The system was developed to remind me of my daily planning
|
|||
|
|
tasks once each day.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY works in conjunction with the DOS ERRORLEVEL batch
|
|||
|
|
command facility. The following statements show how selected
|
|||
|
|
commands are executed once per day.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|

|||

Command Parameters:
|
|||
|
|
-------------------
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY allows several command parameter switches to be specified
|
|||
|
|
to customize the process. All these parameters are optional.
|
|||
|
|
The command format and switch parameters are described below. A
|
|||
|
|
quick review of command parameters is always available by
|
|||
|
|
entering the PDAILY command with the /H parameter.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
COMMAND FORMAT:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY [logfilename] (/ switches)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
logfilename You may optionally specify the alternate name
|
|||
|
|
of a log file PDAILY is to use. This is a zero
|
|||
|
|
length file that is used to keep the current
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY staus.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This feature is useful to keep PDAILY status for
|
|||
|
|
more than one event or activity. Use a different
|
|||
|
|
logfilename for each PDAILY event controlled.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If not specified, PDAILY.DAT is used.

/H Display help about PDAILY
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
/N Return the proper ERRORLEVEL command but do not
|
|||
|
|
change it. Running PDAILY again will produce the
|
|||
|
|
same ERRORLEVEL the next time it is run, even the
|
|||
|
|
same day.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
/R Reset PDAILY status from "already done today" to
|
|||
|
|
"not yet done today". Next time PDAILY is run
|
|||
|
|
it will indicate the commands are to be executed
|
|||
|
|
again.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
/T Print status messages to indicate what ERRORLEVEL
|
|||
|
|
PDAILY has set.
