I got the error below while running a pre-written cmd file on Windows.
'mt' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The use case is:
mt -manifest <... something else....>
It's obvious that it needs some mt, but I can't figure what mt really is, so I could install the thing.
Could anyone tell me what this is or where to get it?
Thanks

Given the context of a batch file, it's probably a backup script, so you're probably looking for this:

Or if it's a script from a dev project, it probably refers to this:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa375649(v=vs.85).aspx
Again, what does the script do?

im really new to unix, i wanted to learn how to edit a .profile script on OSX lion to help me have shortcut for this directory:
/usr/local/cellar/node_modules/node.io/bin/node.io
i want to be able to run the program like this:
node.io -h
instead of :
/usr/local/cellar/node_modules/node.io/bin/node.io -h
for some reason npm hasn't decided to set paths for me, even though i used -g, so going to do it manually.
export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/local/cellar/node_modules/node.io/bin

I was trying to add a dir to my path environment but somehow things went wrong and now the terminal wont even recongnize the 'ls' command.
How can I reset or fix this?
Thanks.
Do it from another account, if needed by booting in single user mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1492
This presumes that you are familiar with the basics of Unix shells.

I want script to download xml file from ftp, already written small script for it and seems working fine, while running the script from command prompt ftp -s:script.txt. Is it possible to keep the script.txt file in some other drive and run it.
Because my script is in D\scripts drive and my command prompt defaults me to C drive,
please help.
If I'm not mistaken you can specify the full path:
ftp -s:D:\somepath\script.txt
be careful to use quotes should the path contain spaces:
ftp -s:"D:\some path with spaces\script.txt"

i wanted to run a .bat file in windows task scheduler, so i opened it, added a new task, browsed to the bat file, and... nothing happened. so i changed the timing to see if it'll run, and it didn't. next i right-clicked on the task and chose "run"- it didn't run. the file itself is only one line, basically backups a folder to a another location. it runs fine when not in the scheduler.
what can be done?
thank you
You should not give batch file directly as a task. Instead you should use
"C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe" /C <completepathtobatchfile> <argstobatchfileifany>
the complete path to cmd.exe may vary in your case depending on which drive you installed OS and which version you are using.

I found that taking any exe file, renaming it to program (without extension) and putting it in C:\ root folder might cause strange things in windows like showing this application when other programs start.
What is it? is it some kind of backdoor?
p.s if you restart windows after doing so - you get a warning about it.
thanks,

Maybe the fact that some programs don't know how to access C:/Program Files/. because it has a space. Then they are trying to execute C:/program, which in your case turns out to be the file you created.
