通过使用CALL, EXIT /B, SETLOCAL和ENDLOCAL可以实现带有局部变量的子例程。

例子:

@echo off

set x=xxxxx
call :sub 10
echo %x%
exit /b

:sub
setlocal
set /a x=%1 + 1
echo %x%
endlocal
exit /b

这将打印

11
xxxxx

尽管:sub修改了x。

抽取随机的文本行

@echo off

:: Get time (alas, it's only HH:MM xM

for /f %%a in ('time /t') do set zD1=%%a



:: Get last digit of MM

set zD2=%zD1:~4,1%



:: Seed the randomizer, if needed

if not defined zNUM1 set /a zNUM1=%zD2%


:: Get a kinda random number

set /a zNUM1=zNUM1 * 214013 + 2531011

set /a zNUM2=zNUM1 ^>^> 16 ^& 0x7fff


:: Pull off the first digit

:: (Last digit would be better, but it's late, and I'm tired)

set zIDX=%zNUM2:~0,1%


:: Map it down to 0-3

set /a zIDX=zIDX/3


:: Finally, we can set do some proper initialization

set /a zIIDX=0

set zLO=

set zLL=""


:: Step through each line in the file, looking for line zIDX

for /f "delims=@" %%a in (c:\lines.txt) do call :zoo  %zIDX%  %%a


:: If line zIDX wasn't found, we'll settle for zee LastLine

if "%zLO%"=="" set zLO=%zLL%

goto awdun


:: See if the current line is line zIDX

:zoo


:: Save string of all parms

set zALL=%*


:: Strip off the first parm (sure hope lines aren't longer than 254 chars)

set zWORDS=%zALL:~2,255%


:: Make this line zee LastLine

set zLL=%zWORDS%


:: If this is the line we're looking for, make it zee LineOut

if {%1}=={%zIIDX%} set zLO=%zWORDS%


:: Keep track of line numbers

set /a zIIDX=%zIIDX% + 1

goto :eof




:awdun

echo ==%zLO%==


:: Be socially responsible

set zALL=

set zD1=

set zD2=

set zIDX=

set zIIDX=

set zLL=

set zLO=

:: But don't mess with seed

::set zNUM1=

set zNUM2=

set zWORDS=

脚本所在的路径(带驱动器):~dp0

set BAT_HOME=%~dp0
echo %BAT_HOME%
cd %BAT_HOME%

狡猾的等待N秒的技巧(不是cmd.exe的一部分，但不是额外的软件，因为它是Windows自带的)，参见ping行。您需要N+1个ping，因为第一个ping没有延迟。

    echo %time%
    call :waitfor 5
    echo %time%
    goto :eof
:waitfor
    setlocal
    set /a "t = %1 + 1"
    >nul ping 127.0.0.1 -n %t%
    endlocal
    goto :eof

如块状结构:

if "%VS90COMNTOOLS%"=="" (
  echo: Visual Studio 2008 is not installed
  exit /b
)

输出一个空行:

echo.
