Internal
Purpose
Controls whether ROM-DOS commands and other messages are
displayed during batch file execution.
ECHO also allows you to create your own messages for display.
Syntax
ECHO [ON|OFF]
ECHO message
Remarks
ON is the default ECHO setting. It displays commands in a batch file
as they are executed by ROM-DOS. Typing ECHO OFF turns off such
display. ON switches it back on again.
ECHO alone, typed without ON or OFF, displays the current ECHO
setting.
message is a string of characters, such as a warning or a reminder,
that you want ROM-DOS to display. Although your message is
displayed whether ECHO is on or off, the message display is useful
only when ECHO is off.
To create a message, type ECHO followed by your message. If your
message is more than one line long, begin each line of the message
with the ECHO command
The @ symbol can be used to suppress the echoing of a single
command when ECHO is off. Place the @ symbol first on the
command line.
