Hai... Batch programming is also called as windows shell scripting...Forgetting about their basic difference it;s in which O.S u are very much comfortable in Windows or Linux and learn accordingly.Both language have all the neccessary command to perform the work.. Batch porgramming is very much easier to learn for people who know windows very well...And what i heard is Linux shell scripting is powerful unless u know the linux very well.. This message is to just give a idea before starting ur work.. Hope it helps..
