";" is the default EOL character in FOR commands.
Use a dummy character that is not in the lines you want to parse (like "@") : eol=@

See FOR /? for details.

See code below for how I interpreted your requirements (not everything was clear to me). It is merely a rough sketch of the logic you could use; not read-to-run code. As I don't have enough time to visit this forum often (unfortunately), don't expect quick responses from me. But the good people on t...

Or ...
add /K to your original command to get rid of the version info: and
Succes ermee!

As far as I can tell - don't have the source code of CMD - the for loop starts with the first file (sorted alphabetically by name), then proceeds with the alphabetically next one. If you rename a file so that it's inserted in the original list, that file will be picked up when it's alphabetically ne...

Search tip: add "ISBN" to your search query to find books. Select images to see their covers.

BTW: Are you sure you didn't mix up batch and bash?

Code: Select all

type %1.64 | clip

I was wondering if there was any technical reason for using the type file | clip syntax in this case instead of the clip < file one?
Or is this in the category "same difference" / personal preference?

Possibly the whole thing is interesting for other users.

Yes it is! Thank you!
Did you test this with folder access over SMB too? (meaning a network folder; can't test it right now, but am very curious)

Nice discovery.

Without (part of) the actual text file, this might produce false results. But as you did't provide that: @echo off setlocal ::__________________________________________________ :: :: SETTINGS ::__________________________________________________ :: set LENGTH=8 set SUFFIX= set INPUT=INPUT.txt set TUS...

Your concerns about decimal calculations are valid for things like division or modulus. Addition and subtraction are just single CPU operations. Multiplication is cheap, too. How do you know? Is there a thread about that on these forums? (still 7000+ topics to read ...) I did some quick tests and t...

When I start my computer, Do you mean: "When I log in after strating my computer" or does this happen *before* you log in? - Start task Manager (taskmgr.exe / Ctrl-Shift-Esc) - Go to the Startup tab - Right-click each entry and choose disable - Reboot and log in. If the "problem" is gone, re-enable...

No problem; you're welcome!

For every program there are multiple settings in the registry, like DisplayName, DisplayVersion, .. But not all programs have all settings defined (on my system this varies wildly from 0 to 30 settings). That's why the variables containing these settings have to be 'un-set' before the next program i...

Does anyone know how to streamline the code so that there are not so many actions that need to be performed but at the same time produces the correct results please [like do I need all the C:\ 's before the file name etc]. This is what I wrote a couple of years ago. No guarantees, not tested (recen...

For some reason after I "right click" and "run as Administrator" Be aware that if you start your script like that, you will end up with a completely different %USERNAME% if you weren't logged in as a local administrator. My advice: Split your script in a SYTEM part and a USER part. (although there ...
