You can do a lot more in batch files if you use 4DOS (or 4OS/2, etc.) or
Take Command; see http://www.jpsoft.com/ . The former is (are) compatible
with Win9xUS; the latter with any Win9x.

A fair number of GUI programs can be run with parameters. Using Take
Command, you can put these, or DOS, or Win32 "console mode" programs in
batch files that you can run in one of the 98 windows. I do this routinely
myself.
