How to add a CRLF

#1 Post by Docfxit » 16 Oct 2022 12:58

This bat file checks to see if files exist. It lists the files that are not found all on one line. I'd like to know how to change it to list each file on a line of it's own. This is what the output looks like:

This is what the bat file looks like now:

Code: Select all

(set file=)
if not exist "VNC UltraVNC_1_2_22_X64_Setup.exe" (
set file=VNC UltraVNC_1_2_22_X64_Setup.exe)
if not exist VNCsaveinf.inf (
set file=%file% VNCsaveinf.inf)
if not exist VNCsetup.reg (
set file=%file% VNCsetup.reg)
if not exist SecureVNCPlugin64.dsm (

Try something about like that.

Code: Select all

@echo off
(set lf=^
%= creates a line feed, do not alter =%
)

setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set "file="
if not exist "foo.exe" set "file=!file!!lf!   ?    foo.exe"
if not exist "bar.txt" set "file=!file!!lf!   ?    bar.txt"
if defined file  (
  echo    ?  The files ...!file!
  echo    ?  ... do not exist in this directory.
)
endlocal

pause
