Is there anyway to make it more generic?

Postexec doesn't pass any arguments does it?

I was really hoping for turn number and game name.

That would allow a much more generic and useful script.

Good idea Gandalf. That way you wouldn't have to do anything to keep saves from the last three turns (or more if you wanted to set up more directories and add additional lines to the batch file). Another idea would be to do that to save the last few turns and then set up a separate directory and a quicklink to another batch file to do a special save to that directory that could be used to capture some point of particular interest.

By the way, I run in windowed mode so I can easily use the quicklink. I would also be interested in thejeff's question about accessing turn # and game name. I had thought about inputting those manually, but besides taking longer, the command I used to use for keyboard input for batch files doesn't seem to work under XP. Anyone know how to do keyboard input to a batch file under XP?
