I have found this example here:
@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in ("GEN 0 GENERAL.html") do (
echo do my commands on %%a
pause
)
pause
I should read file line by line. My goal is to read and print whole line, not just one or two tokens. For me this does not work. Any idea why? I got this output: do my commands on GEN 0 GENERAL.html Press any key to continue...
Solved:
@echo off
setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
for /f "tokens=* delims= usebackq" %%a in ("GEN 0 GENERAL.html") do (
echo do my commands on %%a
pause
)
pause

Add usebackq
to your options list, after the tokens
and delims
options:
"tokens=* delims= usebackq"
As you have it written, the double quotes around the filename are causing it to be interpreted as a string (and not the name of file containing strings).
