You can use save your normal file with batch programming in it with .bat extension. And run that file WhateverNameItIs.bat on your command prompt.

Saved it as file.bat

 @ECHO ON
 ECHO Color A

In your case you can drag file from your where your are to command prompt. Or Using CD you can reach out where your file is saved within your command prompt. Fire up file.bat on your command prompt will execute whatever batch programming is written on that file.
