Question about Batch

[piemadd]

So, i was having a question on coding a batch file. Is there a way to have it input into the keyboard?

 

Thanks!

The thing you want is

set /p variable= [string]

Where variable is the variable you want the input stored and [string] is the message you want the bat file to print out as a prompt

i want to add to the above

set /p variable=

will save the input to %variable%

Quote

echo %variable%

will output the contents of variable

heres an example i got from google that might help you use the input

Quote

:MAIN    
echo what is your name?  
set /p var=
set /p answer= so your name is %var%?  
IF %answer%== yes echo thats an amazing name!  
IF %answer%== no goto MAIN
