START
Starts a program in new window, or opens a document.
Uses an unclear algorithm to determine whether the first passed argument is a window title or a program to be executed; hypothesis: it uses the presence of quotes around the first argument as a hint that it is a window title.
Examples:
start notepad.exe & echo "Done."
Starts notepad.exe, proceeding to the next command without waiting for finishing the started one.
Keywords: asynchronous.start "notepad.exe"
Launches a new console window with notepad.exe being its title, apparently an undesired outcome.start "" "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
Starts Internet Explorer.
The empty "" passed as the first argument is the window title of a console that actually does not get opened, or at least not visibly so.start "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
Launches a new console window with "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" being its title, apparently an undesired outcome.start /wait notepad.exe & echo "Done."
Starts notepad.exe, waiting for it to end before proceeding.start /low notepad.exe & echo "Done."
As above, but starting the program with a low priority.start "" MyFile.xls
