for Windows XP this batch
:: allcmds.bat
@echo off
%windir%\hh.exe ms-its:%windir%\help\ntcmds.chm::/ntcmds.htm
will give you a nice command reference, while
:: cmdhelp.bat
@echo off
start %windir%\hh.exe ms-its:%windir%\help\ntcmds.chm::/%1.htm
will give you specific help for the command
entered.
For W2K a slightly different batch is
needed:
:: allcmds.bat
@echo off
%windir%\hh.exe
ms-its:%windir%\help\windows.chm::/ntcmds.htm
:: cmdhelp.bat
@echo off
%windir%\hh.exe
ms-its:%windir%\help\windows.chm::/%1.htm
Please
note that the 2nd batch works for all the commands listed in the command
reference with the exception of ren, cd, md and rd.
For these commands you must use the long form r�name, chdir,
mkdir and rmdir. Don't call any of these batches help.bat:
there's already a help.exe in %windir\system32.
