Need a Quick and Dirty Menu.bat

Post by Fidoman82 »

Currently running DOS 3.3 with the JRide ver A. 20mb HD
Got lots of games and would like to write a quick and dirty Menu.bat with game selections.
So far running into Problems with the SET /P M= and IF GOTO syntax
Do I have to upgrade my DOS to 5.0?
Got 24+ hours into trying to remember back 30 years so any help/working Examples much appreciated.

Looks like the perfect opportunity for total DOS launcher:

works with DOS 2.1 and has all the features you need for a menu system, including a favorites list.
