DOS Copy con (redirected from Copy Con)

DOS Copy con

An internal command for creating a quick batch file in DOS or Windows. For example, to create the WRITE batch file, type:

            copy con write.bat

After pressing Enter, you'll get a blank line. Type your text and press Enter to end the line. When done, press F6 (ctrl-Z), then press Enter.

Copy Con works a line at a time. You cannot go back and change lines, but you can use backspace to delete characters on the same line. See cat.
