.bat is a DOS/Windows batch file, executed/process by the command-processor.
The Linux equivalent would be a shell-script, but in Linux extensions don't
matter. You can call a bash (shell) script a .bat, and it will happily
work. You *CAN NOT* just run a .bat that came from a windows machine on
Linux w/o heavily modifying it.
