strip eol character of echo command

[miltos]

i want to redirect echo output to a file but without the eol char.

for example

echo salalalala > something.text

something.text contains

1 salalalala[CRLF]
2 [newline]

Is there any quick way to disable eol?

[miltos]

never mind; I found something that works for me

@echo off
echo | set /p =salala > something.text

Here is another way of achieving what you want, it works because the input stream is closed by the redirecting to con.

Code: Select all

<nul set /p "=salala" > something.text

The reason you have to pipe CRLF to set is cause 'set /p' is meant to read input from device.

Code: Select all

>set /?
...
SET /P variabele=[promptString]

It expect termination of the input.
