	Batch File Help
		Batch files are files that allow MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows users to create a lists of commands and/or programs to run once the batch file has been executed.
		For example, a batch file could be used to run frequently run commands, deleting a series of files, moving files, etc. A simple batch file does not require any special programming skills and can be done by users who only know DOS commands.
		A good example of a batch file for someone who is more familiar with Windows or the MacOS is to think of a batch file as a shortcut in Windows or an icon on the MacOS.

	Help: Batch File Parameters
		The command tail (everything on the command line after the batch file or alias name) is separated into individual positional parameters (also called parameters or batch variables) by scanning for the spaces, tabs, and commas that separate them.
		Parameters that are referred to in a batch file, but which are missing on the command line, appear as empty strings inside the batch file.
		For example, if you start a batch file and put two parameters on the command line, any reference in the batch file to %3, or any higher-numbered parameter, will be interpreted as an empty string.

		The GOTO command searches both forward and backward in the batch file; that is, it simply goes to the label location, regardless of where it is in the file.
