Setting up batch files requires typing all of the commands that the computer will execute into an ASCII file with the extension .bat. This can be done with an editor such as EDLIN (it comes with MS-DOS, see manual for instructions) or the SIDEKICK notepad...
Finally, I submit that the Happy Hacker should try reading the manual. The example he gave was to change the Microsoft Word menu to allow command-key sequences--like hitting command-B to change to bold. Microsoft Word already has key sequences for changing the font to bold, along with just about every other command you could hope for. Another solution is to purchase a program called Tempo, which allows you to recall both key-strokes and mouse movements by hitting a command...
Childcraft's superb sets of large wooden blocks (ranging from $35 to $200) are crafted to be the foundation not only of manual skill but of imaginative construction that older kids can carry forward into Fisher-Price's excellent $5-to-$38 Construx sets. These will yield an armada from outer space that & might handily be reinforced by some vehicle from the cartoon-linked but still lively MASK series, or by the formidable Giant "vertical climbing system," a rumbling series of interlocking rough-roaders (scant assembly required) that can make it over cartons and well up walls...
...tool for studying how genes go about their business. By fusing the firefly gene to the genetic material of other plants and animals, biologists gain a visual cue $ that will help them understand in detail how genes -- strands of DNA whose structure acts as a sort of coded instruction manual -- tell different cells what their duties are within an organism. Armed with such specific knowledge, researchers may someday understand exactly why these instructions are occasionally garbled and, perhaps, why cancer and other gene-influenced diseases occur. Predicts Stephen Howell, a plant molecular biologist and a member of the research team...
