I’d like to find a Windows batch counterpart to Bash’s $@
that holds a list of all arguments passed into a script.
Or I have to bother with shift
?

dancavallaro has it right, %*
for all command line parameters (excluding the script name itself). You might also find these useful:
%0
– the command used to call the batch file (could be foo
, ..\foo
, c:\bats\foo.bat
, etc.)
%1
is the first command line parameter,
%2
is the second command line parameter,
and so on till %9
(and SHIFT
can be used for those after the 9th).
%~nx0
– the actual name of the batch file, regardless of calling method (some-batch.bat)
%~dp0
– drive and path to the script (d:\scripts)
%~dpnx0
– is the fully qualified path name of the script (d:\scripts\some-batch.bat)
