Navbox conversion
Trying a reorg of this. Thoughts? If it works out, will probably do the same to template:Unix commands. Chris Cunningham 09:50, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- The Navbox conversion was a great idea. Good job! Edurant 11:35, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Whats the point of this navbox?
Indexing Window commands? Or indexing windows commands that have an associated wikipedia article? Navboxes are used for the latter. For the former, either a "List of..." article or a category is used. Can't really decide what I want more - remove the unwikilinked commands or let them stay. Requesting comments. --soum talk 19:51, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
- Keep! I agree it might not be that usefull right now with only some blue links, but it reminds people that there are still some Windows commands that don't have their own article (although they should have!). All we need to do is write some articles for those commands or - if possible - include the description of the Windows implementations into the article of the corresponding Unix commands with the same name, thus to creating platform neutral articles like cd (command), exit (command), mkdir etc. I'm planning to do this with more (Unix), sort (Unix) and whoami (Unix), just like I already did with alias (command).

The collection
Could we please add the Wikibooks commands : Cipher, Diskperf, Dnscmd, Eventcreate, Eventtriggers, Ipv6, Jview, Keyb, Mem, Nlsfunc, Scandisk, Typeperf ? JackPotte (talk) 12:43, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
- I've just integrated them in the French version. JackPotte (talk) 15:55, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Article for_loop (link target) does not have any information about this command. -Yyy (talk) 12:35, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
IBM category?
I believe that this template shouldn't categorize into Category:DOS on IBM PC compatibles because it doesn't talk about it. To my mind it would make a subcategory of Category:MS-DOS/Windows Command Prompt commands, which is this template topic. JackPotte (talk) 19:05, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
