Batch file: Search for text and proceed on error

Question

I've tried to write a batchfile, which would check it's own directory for other batch files and check these for a certain text. If the text is found, I want the program to jump to the end, otherwise copy itself into the found file. Here's how I tried:

    rem windowsisajoke
    for %%f in (*.bat) do (set A=%%f)
    set FILE=%A%
    set CONTENT=windowsisajoke
    findstr /i "%CONTENT%" %FILE% >NUL
    if errorlevel 0 goto end
    copy %0 %A%
    :end

Answer 1

if errorlevel 0 actually means "if errorlevel is zero or greater". (I know - very intuitive...)

Either change your logic:

if errorlevel 1 copy %0 %A%

or use

if %errorlevel%==0 goto :end
