However its a long long time since I was techie! I could probably write a menu system in a DOS batch file but not this new fangled stuff
Yeah you could.Originally posted by Zippy View PostI couldn't!
Think along the lines of...
menu.bat
1.bat
2.bat
3.bat
4.bat
A.bat
.

.
With judicious use of things like...
@echo off
cls
echo Enter 1 for Option 1
echo Enter 2 for Option 2
echo Enter 3 for Option 3
echo Enter 4 for Option 4
echo Enter A for AndyW's Mother

Quite easy for a practiced sockie master. Login to CUK and have multiple windows up linking through an encrypted web proxy or use multiple devices. You're logged in more than once and not stopped by the 30 second rule.Originally posted by Wodewick View Post18:28

The one called Mr Thrush is well practiced in this game and as the posting style is similar it's a pity some people don't put more effort into getting a contract than appearing like a looney without a TV.
In addition, has anyone noticed the near 3000 sockie accounts created in the last few months? No? The near 80 - 100 accounts per day? And has anyone worked out what poster is linked to them? Mmmm? Mmmm? Someone with 3000 CUK sockies accounts?What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

and for "prettyness" the cls command is the key so that the Menu appears "fixed" and doesn't move up and down the screen every key press.Jim is a Jedi! - Dara
