Re: How can I remove trailing space(s) between text and CR/L
I like your RTRIM macro much better, but I don't see how my proposal strips carets. Hmm ... that's what I get: > rtrim "hello^ world! " before="hello world " after="hello world" > rtrim "hello^world! " before="helloworld " after="helloworld&quo...

Re: How can I remove trailing space(s) between text and CR/L
Merry Christmas everyone! @Dave Good idea, but my first tests showed that single carets are removed @Alan To be honest I would avoid Batch in this case. Other languages could solve your Lf problem and the right-trimming at once. Tell me if you would be interested in. However, this could remove at le...

Re: Can I get individual "unix" lines read by set /P "LN="
Hi Alan. Obviously SET /P needs CrLf to separate the lines. I'm virtually certain you can't change that behaviour (except you would develop your own cmd.exe ). You could return to FOR loops, like ... @echo off & setlocal DisableDelayedExpansion SET "file=Test2.ini" set /a n=0 for /f &q...

Re: copy mulitiple files an once
That's too less information. You could use wildcards like asterisks. You could use different commands with different options, such like COPY, XCOPY and ROBOCOPY. You could process the DIR command in a FOR /F loop. You could apply FIND or FINDSTR to the files or to the output of DIR. It depends on wh...

Re: Decoding password letters.
The program is processing the virtual key codes but it is displaying asterisks instead. You can't decode these asterisks because they are not encoded

No way.

Not sure. Have a look at SendKeys in VBScript or JScript. But it's not applicable to a lot of computer games (the developers already know such tricks).

I'm not sure whether you realized that you asked that in a Windows Batch forum
All I can say is there is no way using batch.

Re: Can't remove <space> FOR delimiter
It's not a problem of your FOR loop but it's a problem of how you call your sub routine. You have to enclose arguments with spaces in quotation marks. @echo off &setlocal set "_InputFile=test.txt" For /F "tokens=1-5 delims=," %%I IN (%_InputFile%) DO ( ECHO %%I Call :process_...

Re: use ie to google all running tasks (for tokens delims)
Be careful! If you run approx. 100 instances of Internet Explorer your machine will probably freeze because of 100% CPU use.
