This isn't about ignoring lines with eol=x, but the other way around, so I can't use your code. I want to create a singleline of youtube-dl's multiline output, by using CRLF as a delimiter, so I can "tokenize" it into 2 variables. You're saying I can't? I've tried... FOR /F "tokens=1,...

I have the following situation: youtube-dl.exe -gf 135+141 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpvLMyC4a8o https://r3---sn-mn4vg5aa-5hns.googlevideo.com/...longurl... https://r3---sn-mn4vg5aa-5hns.googlevideo.com/...longurl... When you want youtube-dl to return the videolink of 2 formats of a certain vi...

I didn't know %%~nxA would also work for urls. Nice! I've further worked out my script: @ECHO off CLS :: NPO JSON-extractor geschreven door Reino Wijnsma, 2015 (reino@degeelebosch.nl) SET batchname=NPO JSON-extractor SET version=1.1 TITLE %batchname% %version% SET curl="C:\map with spaces\curl....

Situation: Using batchscript to retrieve certain values from a JSON. I've got the following batchscript: @ECHO off SET url=http://www.npo.nl/buitenhof/03-05-2015/VPWON_1232766/POMS_VPRO_850040 FOR /F "tokens=6 delims=/" %%A IN ("%url%") DO ( FOR /F "delims=" %%B IN ('cu...
