"shift" - Shift Batch Parameters
What is the "shift" batch command for?
✍: FYIcenter.com
The "shift" command is for shift values of batch parameters
downward by one position.
Below is the "shift" command syntax:
shift
When the "shift" command is executed, values of batch parameters will be shift downward by one position. In other words, the value of %1 is copied to %0, the value of %2 is copied to %1, and so on. This is useful for writing a batch file that performs the same operation on any number of parameters.
Here is an example on how to use the "shift" command to copy multiple files to a directory:
@echo off rem MYCOPY.BAT copies any number of files rem to a directory. rem The command uses the following syntax: rem mycopy dir file1 file2 ... set todir=%1 :getfile shift if "%1"=="" goto end copy %1 %todir% goto getfile :end set todir= echo All done
