Echo is a dos command used in the autoexec.bat file to display commands as they are executed in the boot procedure.When the command @ECHO ON is used in the autoexec.bat all commands are displayed at boot. Your command C:\echo >a.htm Makes no sense

How about this then?

[recurse.bat]
set gt=>
set lt= output.html
for %%f in (c:\dir\*.*) do echo %lt%A HREF="file:///c:\dir\%1"%gt%%%f%lt%/A%gt%%lt%BR%gt% >> output.html
echo %lt%/BODY%gt%%lt%/HTML%gt% >> output.html
set gt=
set lt=

Per usual, I wrote it in my head and don't guarantee it works as it is. Albeit after I post I really want to try it and find out. ;)

Correction to my first post.

C:\echo > a.htm (enter)

A file called a.htm should be created.
Zero bytes but there.

Might try c:\echo a.htm > a.htm

This way when you open it you have a reference to what it is.
