Windows Interface Language (WIL) is an easy-to-use yet very powerful general-purpose programming language with over 500 functions for file management, sending keystrokes, disk drive management, directory management, binary file access, multimedia support, DDE support, clipboard handling, system control, program management, string handling, displaying information, user prompting, window management, floating point & integer arithmetic, execution control and more. Many operations that require pages of code in other programming languages can be accomplished with a single WIL function call. WIL is supported by several Island Lake Consulting products, including WinBatch, WinBatch+Compiler, WebBatch, FileMenu and PopMenu. Some implementations of WIL include capabilities not described here (for example, WebBatch includes functions that are useful only in an Internet World Wide Web server environment, and leaves out those that don't make sense in that environment such as window management). This help file describes the "standard" set of WIL functions; for details on a particular implementation of WIL please see that program's help file.
