Description

The HP Palmtop Paper Sometimes useful, sometimes flakey, the Batch Debug program will let you debug simple DOS batch files interactively. You can single-step through a knotty batch file and find out why it fails then correct the error in the built-in editor. The tutorials work fine, but back up everything before trying it with your own batch files. This is version 1.4 of this shareware product that is hard to find.

Send to my palmtop

The palmtop must be waiting before you press the button, or the transfer will fail. It is the palmtop that announces it is ready, not the other way round.
