Entering the ESPEED command in a batch file
You may want to run the ESPEED program by including the
command in a batch file. Let’s say you have a program called
SLOWDOWN which requires a slower processor speed. You
could include the following commands in a batch file to start
the SLOWDOWN program:
ESPEED S
SLOWDOWN
You could name the batch file SLOW.BAT. Whenever you
need
to run the SLOWDOWN program, insert the program diskette
in drive A. Then type SLOW
and press
[Enbr).
The computer
changes the speed to slow and starts the SLOWDOWN
program.
See your operating system manuals for instructions on creating
and using batch files.
