I'm trying to open a file in it's default editor after the user has created the file. So far my script is:
@echo off @echo --- Create A New File --- @echo - @echo Where should we put the new file? set /p fileLocation=@ %UserProfile%\ @echo - @echo What do you want to call your new file? set /p fileName=@ @echo - @echo Almost Done! What is the files extension? set /p extension=@ . @echo - copy NUL "%UserProfile%\%fileLocation%\%fileName%.%extension%" (ignore the extra echos and '@' those are just for fun)
After I click the file, it does the command: Choose Location > Choose File Name > Choose File extension. I'm almost done on what I want but theres one last thing. How can I get the file name that I created and then open in its default text-editor?
