問題

超級使用者讀者Jake想隱形執行BAT檔案，他寫道：

I have installed a ruby gem called Redcar, which is launched from the command line. When it runs, it steals the shell until it terminates, so I have to create a new shell window to continue doing command line work. The shell I’m using is the GITBash shell from MySysGit.

I found a Redcar.bat file which is meant to launch Redcar as a shortcut, I presume, but I don’t want the extra command prompt window to open whenever I launch the BAT file.

How do I just run the BAT without seeing the prompt?

有什麼辦法可以解決傑克的隱祕慾望嗎？

答案

超級使用者貢獻者Afrazier給出了壞訊息和好訊息的組合：

You can’t — executing a batch file with the built in Command Prompt is going to keep a window open until the batch file exits.

What you can do is take steps to make sure that the batch file exits as quickly as possible. If at all possible, modify the batch file to run whatever program with the start command. By default, start returns immediately without waiting for the program to exit, so the batch file will continue to run and, presumably, exit immediately. Couple that with modifying your shortcut to run the batch file minimized, and you’ll only see the taskbar flash without even seeing a window ***creen.

One caveat to this is that if you’re running a c***ole-mode program, which many script interpreters are, the batch file will wait for the program to exit, and using start will spawn a new c***ole window. What you need to do in this case is run the Windows-based version of the interpreter instead of the c***ole-based one — no start necessary. For Perl, you would run wperl.exe instead of perl.exe. For Python, it’s pythonw.exe instead of python.exe. The old win32 Ruby distribution I have downloaded has rubyw.exe, which should do the same thing.

A final possibility is to use a 3rd-party tool to run the command prompt with a hidden window. I’ve heard of such things but never had a use for them, so I don’t know of anything in particular to point you to.

讀者還向他指出了另一個超級使用者執行緒，該執行緒強調了如何使用visualbasic指令碼來超越最小化可見性和完全隱藏CMD提示符的限制。在這篇文章中，Harry MC解釋道：

Solution 1:

Save this one line of text as file invisible.vbs:

CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”).Run “””” & WScript.Arguments(0) & “”””, 0, False

To run any program or batch file invisibly, use it like this:

wscript.exe “C:\Wherever\invisible.vbs” “C:\Some Other Place\MyBatchFile.bat”

To also be able to pass-on/relay a list of arguments use only two double quotes

CreateObject(“Wscript.Shell”).Run “” & WScript.Arguments(0) & “”, 0, False

eg: Invisible.vbs “Kill.vbs ME.exe”

Solution 2:

Use a command line tool to silently launch a process : Quiet.

根據您是否使用VBS和第三方工具的舒適程度，使用上述任何解決方案，都將至少降低CMD視窗的可見性或完全刪除它。
