Let the user choose an option
The following example uses
set /p to print
Choose either foo, bar or baz! and assign the entered option to the
environment variable %chosen%.
It then uses
if … equ … to compare the entered value to the hard coded values
foo,
bar or
baz. Depending on the chosen value, the
if statement then uses
goto to jump to a
label which simply prints what the user has chosen.
@echo off
:choose
@set /p chosen="Choose either foo, bar or baz! "
if "%chosen%" equ "foo" goto foo_chosen
if "%chosen%" equ "bar" goto bar_chosen
if "%chosen%" equ "baz" goto baz_chosen
@echo "YOu haven't chosen a valid option, try again!"
goto choose
:foo_chosen
@echo Here's Foo
@goto finish
:bar_chosen
@echo Here's Bar
@goto finish
:baz_chosen
@echo Here's Baz
:finish
