Welcome
===========================================================================

Batchrun will let you create batch files using a graphical interface.
In the good old days of DOS .bat files took care of this task.
They still do, but they're not exactly user friendly. With Batchrun .brs
batch files you can launch any number of programs or dialup connections
with just a simple click. You can control the starting process with many
properties like priority or run mode and control their behavior a tad.
You can even do more than starting programs with the built-in file
management functions like Copy, Rename, Makedir, Delete and End Process.
Batchrun batch files can be launched from Explorer or placed in StartUp
folder or on the Desktop.
