ParameterModifiers.bat (GPL)

The Windows batch file parameter modifiers can be quite powerful. Microsoft explains all of the modifiers in the "Using batch parameters" document. The batch file attached below demonstrates each of the modifiers in action.

Attached below is an improved version of the script. This version also outputs the modifiers so that you can see exactly which modifier has what effect.

%~d0      = C:
%~p0      = \bin\scripts\Windows\
%~n0      = ParameterModifiers
%~x0      = .bat
%~s0      = C:\bin\scripts\Windows\PARAME~1.BAT
%~a0      = --a------
%~t0      = 07/21/2008 03:42 PM

The parameter modifiers also works in a FOR loop. The following is an example:

  for /R "%localVaultPath%" %%f in (*) do (
    echo %%f
    echo %%~nf
  )
