I have been known to write the odd .bat file, as well as PowerShell scripts.

Yes Pete, but alas you are venerable and aged, like me. I bet them young whippersnappers don't!

I write them. Need them for automation. Odd thing is we use PowerShell scripts to call them ;P

Like Pete, I use some bat files, but power shell is the way to go.

Mostly when I write C programs for old 8 bit computers. The BAT then is a kind of simple makefile (another thing the youngsters usually don't know anything about) and also handles the deployment of the compiled program to the emulator(s).

Our team and myself as well write cmd files which should be about the same thing as bat files as far as I'm concerned. We use the stuff on our FAST servers to do operations automation. Cheers!

Still used around here for some server-to-client installs. In fact, it's even to be used for a one-shot dumb update. They do what they're supposed to do and are easy to write.

I've been using the make file that gets automagically created by the AVRStudio 5.1 but am looking to tweek, or just generally learn more about them. I googled quite a bit but have not found any good tutorials any sugs?

I write the odd one now and agian, well cmd files anyway, I tend to use a few that I keep around more than writing me ones though - like moving large numbers of files around and renaming etc. Right tool for the right job, as my father used to say. Not sure I liked it that he called me a tool, but there you go.
