Reply: dont worry about it. debug more of for programs than text files.
try this:
echo hello world > c:\hi.txt...puts the text "hello world" in the file hi.txt in the C folder.
type c:\hi.txt > %var1%...this takes the contents of hi.txt and sticks it into the variable %var1%.
and that last line just tells us whats in the file using that %var1% variable.
you proabably knew all that but oh well.
