%%dosvar is the variable that will hold items in the list, usually a single leter: %%a or %%b. Case sensitive, %%a is different from %A. The items in the (set) are assigned to this variable each time the loop runs.
(set of items) is one item or multiple items seperated by commas that determine how many times the loop runs.
command or command strcuture is the operation you want to perform for each item in the list.
This code will run through the set (A, B, C), when it gets to B it will print the message: "B is in the set!"
FOR %%b in (A, B, C) DO IF %%b == B echo B is in the set! |
This line will print the contents of C:\windows\desktop
