Please, help me in: how to put a double command in the cmd, like this in the Linux: apt-get install firefox && cp test.py /home/python/, but how to do this in Windows?, more specific in Windows CE, but it´s the same in Windows and in Windows CE, because the cmd is the same. Thanks!

    If CE is the same as XP Pro (and I’m not sure you’re right about that), you can use the same method:

    dir && echo hello

    Here it is running on my Windows VM (XP SP3):

    C:\Documents and Settings\Pax>dir && echo hello
 Volume in drive C is Primary
 Volume Serial Number is 04F7-0E7B

 Directory of C:\Documents and Settings\Pax

29/06/2009  05:00 PM    <DIR>          .
29/06/2009  05:00 PM    <DIR>          ..
17/01/2009  12:38 PM    <DIR>          Desktop

           9 Dir(s)  13,424,406,528 bytes free
hello

C:\Documents and Settings\Pax>

    Some of the useful multi-command options are:

    cmd1 &  cmd2 - run cmd1 then run cmd2.
cmd1 && cmd2 - run cmd1 then, if cmd1 was successful, run cmd2.
cmd1 || cmd2 - run cmd1 then, if cmd1 was not successful, run cmd2.
