StandBy! v1.0

Standby! is a batch file utility that is designed to wait for a
specifed time and return to DOS and execute the following line in the
.BAT file. There is one noticable difference in this program and the
program WAITFOR!. If the preset time has already passed for that day,
StandBy! will drop out and the .BAT file will continue on.
SYNTAX: STANDBY! 03:15
The time *MUST* be listed in 24hr/Military time for StandBy! to
function properly.
@echo off ─┐

STANDBY! 03:15 ├ Sample BAT file.

line 4 │
exit ─┘
In the sample BAT file above, lines 1 & 2 will run as normal.
StandBY! will hold the file until 3:15 am and then let lines 3 & 4 run.
If 3:15AM has already passed, the BAT file will go ahead and run.
STANDBY! is a free utility from PAROLE Software and as such, carries
no warranty either expressed or implied. If you use it, you accept
*ALL* responsibity. I have tested it on my system with no ill effects
but, that is no guarantee that it will function as such on any other
system.
