However, if you write the same code with a line break between “ECHO” and “Congratulations!” the command will not work since the first item in the line is meant to be a command. Keep @ECHO OFF as the first line in your code so you don’t see the normal output from the command prompt opening.
Keep in mind that the command is the first word on each line. This includes “DEL” and the other codes listed below.
There are many possibilities for creating batch files, if needed, you can search the Internet for more codes. You can, for example, type “Echo” and then type a sentence or two that you want displayed in the Terminal window.
