Open BAT Files Online: Batch File Viewer for Ruby

A BAT file is a Windows batch script: a text file of commands that the command interpreter carries out in order. Opening one with a double click starts it, which is risky when the origin is unknown, because such a script can delete files or change settings before anyone has read a line.

Reading it first is the purpose of a viewer. GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud produces a rendered copy as HTML, PDF, JPG or PNG. Every line stays visible, and the interpreter is never involved.

The rendering supports page navigation, zoom and thumbnails, and password protected files are handled as well. The same endpoint takes more than 180 formats, so a batch script and a spreadsheet take one call.

Ruby applications add it with the SDK for Ruby. When a single file has to be checked once, the free online viewer opens it in a browser tab with nothing to install and no account required.
