Need to know how long a dos program takes to execute

[sciencewhiz]

I need to measure how long it takes a program to execute. I expect it to run about 3 hours or so, and don't want to have to sit there. I only need it accurate to a few minutes or so.

I would prefer to not install cygwin, especially since the system I'm using is not networked.

You can use a program called TimeThis to time something run from the command line.

You can make a .bat with time /T before and after the command.

Oho. Thanks, I always wanted to know how to do that.
