We need windows batch-scripts

Unfortunately I do not know how to write batch scripts.

But for now the easiest way to compile with dotty on Windows is either use IntelliJ or

git clone https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty.git
cd dotty
sbt run <compiler arguments>

and to run classes after compiling:
scala -cp .;<wherever>/dotty/target/scala-2.11/classes/ <package.sub.Main>
starting from directory containing <package>.

(maybe add that to the wiki)

I have not been able to use it as per dotty-example-project because sbt dotty-interfaces/compile:doc is causing errors, and dotty-interfaces/publishLocal depends on that...

One more edit:
This took me some time to figure out: getting the debugger to work with IntelliJ.

The problem is that fork on run := true is required for the dotty compiler to work properly, but debug settings applied to sbt as a whole will not be applied to that forked jvm.

1. edit the sbt build definition of dotty to insert this setting: javaOptions in run ++= Seq("-Xdebug", "-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005"),
2. setup a remote debugger in IntelliJ
3. in the sbt console: run <compiler arguments>
4. optional: [info] Compiling 274 Scala sources and 136 Java sources and weep
5. manually launch debugger when dotty itself starts and: [info] Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 5005

Should be fixed by #1278

We already got rid of those scripts long ago.
