  echo ^( 
  echo set /p seconds=
  echo ^)^<sec.opt
  echo echo.  
  echo %color%
  echo cls
  echo echo                                                            client: %computername%
  echo type chat.txt
  echo PING -n %secconds% 127.0.0.1 ^>nul
  echo goto read
) > reader.bat

The variables aren't printing, right?

Change %color% to %%color%%
Change %computername% to %%computername%%
Change %seconds% to %%seconds%%
