bat files
aka batch files, are scripts, originally for DOS (Disk Operating System), and later for Windows with the extension bat. You can write scripts to automate running a series of programs. GUI (Graphic User Interface)s have made this automation more and more difficult over the years. The syntax of bat files is revolting and amateurish. Take Command is an improved version of the bat file syntax. A program called cmd.exe interprets the text in a bat file and executes the corresponding commands. A bat file is not directly executable, though you can put its name on the command line and have a copy of cmd.exe interpret it for you.
