Batch file include external file for variables

Question

I have a batch file and I want to include an external file containing some variables (say configuration variables). Is it possible?

Answer 1

So you just have to do this right?:

@echo off
echo text shizzle
echo.
echo pause^>nul (press enter)
pause>nul

REM writing to file
(
echo XD
echo LOL
)>settings.cdb
cls

REM setting the variables out of the file
(
set /p input=
set /p input2=
)nul

if %input%==XD goto newecho
DEL settings.cdb
exit

:newecho
cls
echo If you can see this, good job!
DEL settings.cdb
pause>nul
exit
