Unfortunately, the a86 part is obviously only theoretical. I'm basically trying to make it so that when I type a86; I get a message that tells me to input an asm file. If it's indeed an asm file type and it actually resides within the directory then it should compile the file, show a success message, then go back to the original prompt screen(home). If the file isn't in the provided directory; it shows an error message and returns to the original prompt screen(home).
I hope you can help with my dilemma. I haven't used DOS in years (or a computer for that matter besides my iPod). Also, if you can show me how to create a DOS application in itself that does all of this; that'd be great too. But that's just something extra. I'll be happy enough with the batch menu.
