Getting user input with a prompt

#1 Post by serverdelux » 09 Oct 2013 21:17

Curious how I can put

Make your selection to the left of the cursor that waits for a response?

e.g.

Code: Select all

Make your selection: _ <--- Cursor blinking


It would have to do with this code

Code: Select all

set "c=" &set /p "c="


Thanks
