WinRobot is a script-driven program launcher for Windows. WinRobot was created to join a number of Windows and MS-DOS tasks in a linear process and was later expanded to support additional commands. WinRobot launches applications named in command line scripts, and executes each launch consecutively. The WinRobot execution script is an ASCII text file listing a sequence of programs and child processes that will be launched by WinRobot. WinRobot waits until each executable process in the script is finished before launching the next. WinRobot will allow sequential execution of up to 128 applications (the maximum number of lines in a script). Although the WinRobot script is not a replacement for DOS batch files, WinRobot supports a number of internal command options that expand the functionality of WinRobot scripts beyond the launching of applications. WinRobot also allows time scheduled startups\; optionally logs activity and errors\; and comes with an external scheduler program called Wait.Exe.
