Title
Body
When working in a Bash environment, to set the value of a variable as the result of a command, I usually do: var=$(command -args) where var is the variable set by the command command -args . I can then access that variable as $var . A more conventional way to do this which is compatible with almost every Unix shell is: set var=`command -args` That said, how can I set the value of a variable with the result of a command in a Windows batch file ? I've tried: set var=command -args But I find that var is set to command -args rather than the output of the command.
