Any lazy (Windows PC command line) bad two finger typists?...

...if so, use 'notepad' to create a text file called 'g.bat' the contents...

cls
get_iplayer %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8


...put it in the directory with 'get_iplayer.cmd'.

Done. e.g.

g -g jarvis

...rather than...

get_iplayer -g jarvis

Works for me.

Better to use %* instead of %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 so batch file can pass any number of arguments to get_iplayer.
