Windows 7 command line variable equivalent to `$0`

Question

Is there an environment variable in Windows 7 that is set to the name of the currently running script when I run a script?

I'm looking for the Windows equivalent of the Linux variable $0.

Answer 1

Some more info...

%0 is a bit quirky. Depending on how you call the script you will/will not get PATH and extension.

To always get the fully qualified script name this should work %~f0

To learn about how %~f0 works ... at a command prompt enter for /?

FYI... just about every batch language term responds to /?

e.g.

if /? call /? del /? rem /? cmd /? (a lot of interesting info for this one)

For a list of batch language terms, at the command prompt enter just help

Answer 2

Yes, its %0

Answer 3

%0 is what you are looking for.
