Simple batch file processing module

Format of batch file:

    - A # is a comment delimiter, ignore everything on the line.
    - Anything else is command to run - no line continuations!
    
    You can basically just use a list of commands understood
    by the shell.

Example batch file:

    echo "Cmd 1" # this is a comment
    df -h
    # this is a comment too
    ls -lh

    echo "Cmd 4"

Simple, eh?

ver 1.1 - slight cleanup
ver 1.2 - remove interactive jobs (causing some bugs),
          rename variables to be more intuitive, add comments

If you really want to have interactive jobs, you could use
something like this bit of ugliness (but all on one line!):

    read -t 30 -p "Run command? [Y]"; if [ -z ${REPLY} ] || 
    [ ${REPLY} != "N" ]; then echo "I like cheese"; fi

ver 1.3 - minor cleanup
