How to create a basic program using notepad:

 

This was a very nifty thing I found out from watching a couple interesting videos.  It allows you to create a program (.bat to be exact) just by coding in notepad.  Here are the steps to do it!

1.) In the first line, put @ECHO off in the beginning. Move on to the next line.

2.) If you want to change the color, put color and then the value of that color. Ex. Pink = 0d

3.) Give it a title by typing title and then whatever title you wish.

4.) Say something to put text type echo and the text you wish to display.

5.) At the very end put pause. This will display “press any key to continue”.

After you finish, it should look similar to this:

@Echo off
color 0d
title New Program
echo This is your program.
pause

Now click “save as” and type “[program name here].bat”.
Go were you saved it and check out your program!
