Question

I’m writing a batch file that launch an application.

app.exe

After the application is launched, I’m getting a list of options in the console, and the program waits for input, for example:

a: start session

b: end session

c: end

How do I make the batch type a?

Answer 1

Other than using echo as @npclaudiu suggested, you could also write the expected input to a text file and then have the app read the file:

app.exe <input.txt

This works if the app expects more than one line of input.
