Hello! I am having trouble creating a BATCH chat box. You know.. when you can chat with your OWN COMPUTER!! :O ;d
This is what i have done for now:
echo off
:startgame
cls
echo Hi wazup! Who are you?
set /p name=
echo OK, %name%! Say something!
set /p chat=
if %chat% == somehing echo something EH?
So here is my trouble..
How can I make something like this:
if %chat% NOT == somehing echo What? I didnt undestand.Ok i added something like this :
goto :LOOP
:LOOP
set /p chat=
IF "%chat%"=="" (
ECHO Nothing is entered
GoTo :LOOP
)
IF /I "%chat%"=="Hi" (
echo Hello
Goto :loop



C:\test>type chat.bat
echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set chat=echo chat=%chat%
:loop
echo enter greeting?
set /p chat=
echo chat=%chat%
IF "%chat%"=="" (
echo Nothing is entered
goto :loop
)
if  "%chat%"=="HI" (
echo Hello
set chat=goto :loop
)
echo Hasta La Vista
echo Do you want to stop(Y/N)
echo Use UPPER case Y
set /p ans=
if %ans%==Y goto :end
set chat=goto :loop
:end
echo Bye
 
Output:

C:\test> chat.bat
chat=
enter greeting?

chat=
Nothing is entered
enter greeting?
HI
chat=HI

How are you?
chat=How are you?
