Question

i have this command.

ping -n 1 piratelufi.com | find /i "reply from"

i want to get the ip inside the ping response. i thought of using %var:~0,10% but i have no idea how to redirect the output to echo.

i even tried to use pipe

ping -n 1 piratelufi.com | find /i "reply from" | echo %1 

but the %1 variable does not represent the output of the first two commands. i even tried to use &1 but i failed. What is the ‘variable’ needed to echo out the output from the first two commands?

Answer 1

Check out the FOR command it’s really cool:

FOR /f "tokens=1,3 delims=: " %%A IN ('ping -n 1 piratelufi.com') DO IF %%A==Reply ECHO IP IS %%B
