Creating a batch file

I would like to know how to create this.

I have been to a few help sites, but still don't understand how.

I have also never tried to create one before.

I am attempting to perform this tweak from Axcel's Max Speeed Site.

Any help will always be appreciated.


MAXIMIZE NOTEPAD

"Don't you just hate it when you run Notepad and it won't start maximized, no
matter what? Well, I do!"

To get Notepad to maximize upon startup, create a batch file with this line:
@START.EXE /MAX %windir%\NOTEPAD.EXE

This will start a DOS box and then Notepad. Call the batch NOTEMAX.BAT or
whatever you like.

Actually you should right-click on the BATch file's shorcut (PIF = MS-DOS
Program Information File), place a check mark in the "Close on exit" box under
the Programs tab, and make sure you run it Minimized.

Last step: associate your .INI and .TXT files with NOTEMAX.BAT.

You can do this by editing the Registry. Run Regedit and go to these keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\inifile\shell\open\command
@="%windir%\\NOTEPAD.EXE /n \"%1"

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\txtfile\shell\open\command
@="\"%windir%\\NOTEPAD.EXE\" \"%1\""

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\Notepad.exe\shell\edit\command
@="%windir%\\NOTEPAD.EXE %1"

Replace all NOTEPAD.EXE instances under the "(Default)" String Values with
NOTEMAX.BAT, and make sure to type in the full path to your BAT file.
Close Regedit when done."

"Create a shortcut for Notepad. Right-click on it -> click on Properties ->
click on Shortcut tab -> go to Run -> change to Maximized -> hit OK, and
Notepad will open maximized from now on. This works with most Windows apps."
