How can we run a .bat file on Mac OS X?

When it comes to running Windows on a Mac, there are two main players: Parallels Desktop 7 and VMware Fusion 4. Want to run your virtualization program on more than one Mac, Fusion will cost. Whether you need to run Windows programs that don’t have Mac versions, or you're making the switch from PC to Mac and need to transfer your data, Parallels Desktop has you covered. With ongoing support for DirectX and OpenGL, many popular games and game engines are supported within Parallels Desktop.

Has anyone done it?

The equivalent to 'batch files' on OS X are 'shell scripts' (since OS X is derived from Unix). These are written in much the same way, as a text file with a list of commands to run. For example:

It depends on how complicated your requirements are. The fact that you are even asking this questions implies that you do not have extensive knowledge of Mac so you'll probably do something simple. If you're not a unix geek there'll be a steep learning curve with shell scripts.Have a look at automator and see if it will do what you want. You can read about it on Wikipedia or type 'Automator' into that help thingie you find on the mac menubar.

Mac OSX is BSD based no? You may be able to use different shell like/emulator like doscmd

If you must, an effective (but heavyweight) way to run a .bat file on various Unix flavours, including OSX, is with Wine (The WINdows Emulator) : https://www.winehq.org/

Then you can run .bat scripts via:$ wine cmd /c MyScript.bat
