So, typing ECHO OFF prevents the user from watching the batch program execute. In a batch program, the symbol means not to echo a line. PAUSE is a command that stops the program and prompts you to "Press any key to continue." The syntax is:ĮCHO is a DOS command that shows the stuff you type. It follows this syntax:įor example, if you wanted to delete a file called a:\happy.txt you would type this: The MOVE command is exactly the same, except it MOVEs the file, and COPY copies the file. (By the way, this will also rename the file.) I would type this: For example, say I wanted to copy a:\readme.txt to a:\windows\help.txt. The COPY command, obviously copies a file. In DOS help, the syntax is more complicated, but we don't need the advanced features for our batch files.
