: : : ... how do I include line breaks? : : echo.>fubar.txt : : or : : echo.>>fubar.txt : : : : :... And do I have to "build" the new file line by : : : line using a new line in the batch file for each : : : line I want to put in the created file? : : Yes, pretty much. You could do something like so (from the command line): : : for %x in (apples oranges pears bananas) do echo %x>>fubar.txt : : The results in fubar.txt would be: : : apples : : oranges : : pears : : bananas : : To use this command from within a batch file, double-up the percent signs like so: : : for %%x in (apples oranges pears bananas) do echo %%x>>fubar.txt : : To learn more about the "for" command, type: : : for /? : : at the cmd (or command) prompt. : Great. Thanks again.
