Batch + PowerShell + C # polyglot solution

Это то же самое решение, что и Batch + PowerShell hybrid , но с резервным материалом C #, добавленным для совместимости с XP и Vista , Несколько вариантов выбора файла были добавлены в запросе xNightmare67x .

<# : chooser_XP_Vista.bat
:: // launches a File... Open sort of file chooser and outputs choice(s) to the console

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

rem // Does powershell.exe exist within %PATH%?

for %%I in ("powershell.exe") do if "%%~$PATH:I" neq "" (
    set chooser=powershell -noprofile "iex (${%~f0} | out-string)"
) else (

    rem // If not, compose and link C# application to open file browser dialog

    set "chooser=%temp%\chooser.exe"

    >"%temp%\c.cs" (
        echo using System;
        echo using System.Windows.Forms;
        echo class dummy {

Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms
$f = new-object Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog
$f.InitialDirectory = pwd
$f.Filter = "Text Files (*.txt)|*.txt|All Files (*.*)|*.*"
$f.ShowHelp = $true
$f.Multiselect = $true
[void]$f.ShowDialog()
if ($f.Multiselect) { $f.FileNames } else { $f.FileName }

Для выбора папки для XP или Vista используйте либо решение WSH или HTP-раствор npocmaka .
