ROM-DOS Internal Commands 4-3

@

Internal Command

The @ sign command prevents a single command in a batch file from
being echoed to the screen as the batch file is being run. Place the @
sign in front of the command whose display is to be suppressed.

Syntax

@ [batch file command]

Remarks

The

batch file command argument can be any executable line in your

batch file.

Example

s

@COPY FILE1.BAT FILE1.SAV

Executes the COPY instruction, but the instructions are not echoed to the
screen as the batch file runs.

@ECHO OFF

The ECHO OFF command differs from the @ sign in that it causes all
subsequent commands

not to be displayed on the screen. To prevent the

ECHO OFF command from displaying itself, place the @ sign in front of
the command.
