Lazy DOS interface for Python SCDL-CANT EDIT ANYMORE

#1 Post by Kaliados » 24 Nov 2018 13:46

I have a Batch file I use to run a few different argument types for downloading Soundcloud music.
Utilizing 'scdl' through Python.

I decided when I made the DOS file for a friend, to have an ASCII art look.
So I used ' for /f "delims=: tokens=*" %%A in ('findstr /b ::: "%~f0"') do @echo(%%A'
and stored my ASCII art at the bottom of the code with ':::' replacing echo.

When I came back to refining the code I ran into a bit of a wall that I am just baffled on, and would like some outside aide.
Any edit I do to the script breaks the code, where my echoed strings come out with my directory first. IE (IF 'ECHO HI', it would be "C:\location\of\file>ECHO HI")
For the most part the script works fine, but I wrote it in a rush, so some of the ends are kinda fukt.
For example.
I cant change my second condition with :2, and try to end it with goto 2.
I cant even add a MODE atop the script without it breaking.

I am not understanding what you mean by DOS interface and DOS file.

Can you isolate the problem and show me what you change that breaks the code and the output ? Taking out all the code I don't need to test, like scdl etcetera. Can you size it down a bit and show the problem using only 4 lines of code ?
