But does anywhere in the ANSI escape code spec say that setting SGR standalone means resetting the color?

$e]0 (Operating System Controls) is for changing the title, ansicon is in act but it can't take over TCC's ANSI logics. Reference: http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ctlseqs/ctlseqs.html

But the color is different from ANSICON/PuTTY: http://i.imgur.com/5Txfs.png

with ansicon ( http://adoxa.110mb.com/ansicon/ ), I can make use of ANSI escape codes in prompt to have a colorful prompt. It works in Windows cmd.exe and ReactOS cmd.exe, but I found that it doesn't work in TCC and LE.

It fails even have "usebackq" in FOR (code from RosBE): for /f "usebackq tokens=3" %%i in (`"gcc -v 2>&1 | find "gcc version""`) do set _ROSBE_GCCVERSION=%%i for /f "usebackq tokens=2" %%i in (`"gcc -v 2>&1 | find "Target""`) do set _ROSBE_GCCTARGET=%%i

Please post the content of that batch file.

Re: not working I'll agree with you for TCC style variables. *BUT* not with CMD's !var! style delayed variables.

Re: not working but with this script, it proves CMD not only have %CD% unchanged, but really not changing "current directory" by CD/CHDIR: @echo off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /R %%i in (.) do call :disprpath "%%~i" endlocal GOTO :EOF rem sub disprpath(filename) :disprpath...

Re: not working quote from http://ss64.com/nt/setlocal.html : With delayed expansion the caret ^ escapes each special character all the time, not just for one command. This makes it possible to work with HTML and XML formatted strings in a variable.

Re: not working pastebin.ca seems closed, I repost it in http://pastebin.org/172039 .

Re: not working For the second problem, even if I use !CD! instead of %CD%, CMD won't change %CD% variable to "current directory where recursive FOR loop goes". Because CMD does not "Change Directory" in recursive FOR loop, but lookup files in subdirectories in "Current Directory" where "FOR...

Re: not working SET rpath=%~1 removes any surrounding quotes (") from %1.

Re: not working and this one match original usage of variables: @echo off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /R %%i in (.) do call :disprpath "%%~i" endlocal GOTO :EOF rem sub disprpath(filename) :disprpath call :rpath "%~1" echo %rpath% GOTO :EOF rem sub rpath(filename)...

Re: not working This one should work: @echo off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /R %%i in (.) do ( call :rpath "%%~i" echo !rpath! ) endlocal GOTO :EOF rem sub rpath(filename) OUT: %rpath% :rpath rem debug print %1 here echo (rpath: %1) SET rpath=%~1 set...

Re: not working Because it is very minor and easily fixed for both CMD and TCC in script, mention this behavior somewhere in documentation is enough. and another minor different, if I use variable to store FOR command, the FOR extended variable will be killed. [F:\app_related\TCCLE]set...
