Cooking Timer with LARGE scrolling display - ɩᴄᴀʀᴜȿ ᴌוᴠᴇѕ™ - Feb 17, 2017
Hello all! I decided it would be neat to code a cooking timer one day when I realized I didn't have one :P I used LARGE scrolling text from a challenge Annikk.exe have given me, and utilizing :Calc_FPS from einstein1969
Also, using this line of code, I was able to capture the BEL ascii character, and produce a sound every time it displays your message :3
You can find more of these special characters HERE
Code
for /f %%i in ('forfiles /m "%~nx0" /c "cmd /c echo 0x07"') do set "BEL=%%i"![[Image: 745663f99104c28e7fa323fee7459148.gif]](https://gyazo.com/745663f99104c28e7fa323fee7459148.gif)

Have been trying to show people that batch is capable of other things than just the obvious :P I want people to think outside the box and code neat things in batch just because they can. I mean shit, do I think anyone would use this timer? Realistically, no I don't think anyone will use it. But that's not he point, the point is that it's different. It's not something batch was designed do to. I like stuff like that.
