Make a .txt file form .bat

[Carbon Dudeoxide]

Hey everyone, i need help with something.
I made this batch thing with a list of commands like 'type 1 to do watever'
I was wondering if there is any way to make a .txt file with text in it, for example:
'type 5 to save the readme for this file on the desktop'.

Thanks in advance.

Why not just print out the batch file?

Have it echo the readme, but add ">> %userprofile%\Desktop" to the end (assuming you use XP). Like this:

ECHO Readme >> %userprofile%\Desktop
ECHO.
ECHO This file is designed to >> %userprofile%\Desktop

etc...

How do you print something through a .bat file?

[Sidewinder]

Either use the print or the type or the echo command depending where you want the output and where the input is.

Use the help switch /? with either command for more details. With type and echo you can redirect the output to the device of your choice.
