Hi all,

1) I wish to create a Dos batch file which displays "The current time in  format 
"hh:mm" ".
How do I achieve that? If I use "prompt$T", it displays the time in hh:mm:ss. I do not wish to display the seconds.

2) I wish to create a batch file, which displays files in a directory. If the list has more than 6 files, the info will scroll off the screen. I wish to control scrolling using "controlS/control Q". How do I incorporate this feature in the batch file?

Thanks.
