FOR /F with multiple commands

[ace_dent]

Hi,
Is it possible to run multiple commands to evaluate within FOR /F?
e.g.
for /f tokens=* %%a in ('command1 | more') do echo %%a

Yes, but you need to correct syntax errors to do this, especially escape the pipe symbol.

Code: Select all

for /f tokens^=* %%a in ('dir ^| more') do echo %%a

or

Code: Select all

for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir ^| more') do echo %%a
