That's a great site. I wish there'd been something like that years ago, when I was struggling with the damn things - alternate boot settings for games needing XMS or EMS, and a menu system made up of a batch tree to let my mother use the computer...

One more thing - you can always just type HELP at the command prompt in windows to get a list of commands you can use in a batch file, and then HELP followed by the command name, or command name /? to get help on that.
