What did I do to screw up my CMD shell? Windows XP Pro, open a cmd window and do:
C:\>set tt = name
C:\>set tt
tt = name
C:\>echo %tt%
%tt%
C:\>echo %time%
14:13:28.67
The echo command doesn't work for some reason. I can echo the built-in variables just fine. Tried it on another computer and that works as expected
The set
command does not take spaces. The proper syntax would be:
set tt=name
What you have done in your example is set an environment variable tt<space>
. With that in mind, you can try this:
echo %tt%
and see your output.
