Menu question

Probably already solved, how to set a default answer in menu? User should just hit enter to carry on (if he agree) or type what he wants, overriding the offered answer, and press enter.
Of course, no choice support...
Thanks

Actually there is a simpler solution - the value of choice remains unchanged if <Enter> is pressed without entering anything:
Code: Select all
set choice=banana
set /p "choice=Pick your fruit (default=%choice%): "
echo:Your choice is %choice%.

...I knew that.
I was drunk (really) lol. I use a choice function I wrote 8 months ago exclusively now, so it was in the back of my mind.
