Duke Nukem Batch menu using CHOICE command

Duke Nukem game 1 (1991) and 2 (1993) registered version  Batch (.bat) menu using DosBox.

CHOICE is not standard in  Windows XP although it as put back in Vista.  You can either download CHOICE or use a non-choice (SET) BATCH menu which will be posted immediately after this one.

This creates two temporary files stdout.txt and stderr.txt in the directory where the .bat menu is located.  They are removed by this .bat file when closing.

of course this depends on standard installations.  If your installation paths are different, you will need to change the menu appropriately.

copy and paste the following and save it as a batch (.bat) file.  Edit it as needed for your own use.
