I want to extract some info about the photo like the date/time taken and the brand/model of the camera...

My code is the below one : @echo off cd /d "%~dp0" for %%b in (DSF_5105_nikon.jpg) do ( more %%b > %%b.txt ) pause The DSF_5105_nikon.jpg has 6.6 MB size. As a result the more command cannot be executed at once and the -- More (41%) -- is displayed at the bottom of %%x.txt which means that...

Actually, what I am doing is to run more command for a JPG file which is more than 6 Kbytes. When I run it, the 41% of more command is executed and it is demanded to press a button in order to continue with the running of the command. What I need is to use this command in a batch file but the "...

Hello,

In case I run "more" command for a certain file which is too big, the command is not executed at once but "pressing a button" is needed.
Does anybody know any trip on how to overcome this within a batch file?

Thanks

Yes aGerman this was what i wanted

I just need one explanation regarding one line of your code:

set "string=!string:~0,%n%!"

Does this mean that the string will begin from the zero position up to nth?

Thanks

Hi aGerman, Its not that easy because the way the I need to use the "set position" in the text file is more complicated. For your better understanding, I need my final output to be like below: blabla__________renamed to nikos blablabla________renamed to nikos1 bla_____________renamed to ni...

Hello aGerman, Actually I want to write in an empty text file ,not at the beginning of each line but lets say at the 10th column: Nikos --> At the beginning of the line __________Nikos --> at the 10th column of the line(consider the underscores as spaces) I just wonder if there any command with whic...

Hello,

Is there any command with which you can start writing from a specific column/position in a text file?
I couldn't find one so far...

Hello All, I had a further googling on this issue and I found the below pretty cool way of breaking a nested for /L loop with using GOTO: for %%a in (1,2,3) do ( echo Top-level loop: %%a set break= for /L %%b in (4,5,6) do if not defined break ( echo Nested loop: %%a-%%b if %%b == 4 ( echo Breaking ...

Hello aGerman, Thanks for your reply. I had a search in the net before posting and I knew that it is really difficult to break the for /L loop. For this reason I came up with the idea to change the %%variable value inside the for /L loop, but as you wrote this is not possible. Unfortunately, the GOT...

Hello, I need to break a for /L loop violently. The only way to do this is with goto label but this is not very convenient in my current script. So what I was thinking is to somehow set the %%variable equal to the end value, but I did not make it up to now. for /l %%z in (1,1,5) do ( if not exist !h...
