I have to wipe a bunch of floppy disks before returning them to their
owner. Batch/command line processing would be nice. Any suggestions? OS
is windows XP

btdt, its a pita job thats not worth doing imho. If you must, just
format them using dos, it automatically asks: format another y/n?. A 98
boot floppy is all you need. Or if you want 1.6 or 1.7M, maxidisc can
be set to no prompts. 1.44 is universal, 1.6M is a good format as long
as you keep it away from W95, 1.7 is problematic.

If you've got access to a recording studio demagnetiser, use it, very
fast. Note Win cant format demagged discs, maxidisc can.

There are batch groups for DOS. Ask there. Find them with google
