Batcher
http://batcher.pt.vu/


Batcher uses text files (with extension .script) to know wich actions to perform, using .script files is possible to copy,delete or edit files from one place to another. Registry manipulation, hive loading and using encoded files is also supported.

This program was designed with the purpose of making better PE bootable discs, using bart's PE builder as a support we are able to downsize the ISO size into much smaller dimensions.



There are a few projects developed by the community:


ScriptPack - Reduces bartPE and includes some freeware programs and the possibility to make RAM bootable CD's (using windows 2003 as source)- ISO sizes around 70Mb

microPE - The minimum sized WinXP/2003 bootable ISO - minimum size is around 17Mb (at the moment..)

miniBox - Mini-Windows on a Box - aims to provide a 16 bit shell to FreeDos based in files that come from windows 95/98/ME as a test platform



All the information regarding batcher .script files is available in http://scripts.pt.vu, where you'll find sintax examples and screenshots of the working programs and projects


At this moment the more recent .script interpreter used to make bootable ISO's in reduced size is WinBuilder, wich gives far more improved boot disk results.




--------------------
Active WinBuilder projects:

LiveXP - bootable XP/2003 sized sized 31Mb~70Mb using explorer as shell - screenshot
VistaPE - project targeted to customize WindowsPE 2.0 - website/screenshots
ReactOS - Bootable CD based on ReactOS liveCD (Open Source OS compatible with Windows apps) - screenshot
PicoXP - A project targeted to create Windows XP based boot disks sized in 14Mb
