Application of winrar compression/decompression in DOS

Use examples to illustrate the problem.

My WinRAR path:

C:/Program Files/winrar/winrar.exe

Usage: RAR < command >-< switch 1>-< switch n> < compressed file > < file ...> <@ list file ...> < decompression path/> < command >

[command line argument view]

Operation Steps:

1. C:/Program Files/winrar under the Rar.exe copy to the%systemroot%/system32, so you do not have to set RAR environment variables, and can directly again cmd command prompt using the RAR command.

(About environment variables: cmd command can not use what to do)

2. Create duxing.txt files and Dodo folders in C disk for a trial.

3. In operation, enter CMD to open the command prompt.

4. Then:

Compressed files:

C:/Documents and settings/administrator>cd/
C:/>rar a Duxing.rar duxing.txt

WinRAR how to bulk compress a folder

1. Drag and drop file compression:
Create a bat with the following contents:

RAR a%1.rar%1

You can then compress the file or folder that you want to compress in turn by dragging it onto the bat icon.

You can save a little bit of things.

------update--2008.11.18--the world.

In the dos bar post for advice return ~ ~

@echo off
REM--Sets the specified path to D:/test, and the user can customize
Set "Pt=d:/test"

REM-Gets the names of all files and folders under the specified path
for/f%%i in (' dir/b d:/test ') do (

REM--This is the command argument shown here
RAR a d:/test/%%~ni.rar d:/test/%%i
)
echo Complete.
Ping-n 3 127.0.0.1>nul

Description of the batch above:

1. REM is followed by annotations;
2. Set "Pt=d:/test" setting is the path, test every file and folder will be compressed into a single RAR package;
3. for/f%%i in (' dir/s/b d:/test ') is what I found in the DOS bar, which means that the name of the file and folder under the D:/test path is taken as the next parameter
4. rar a d:/test/%%~ni. rar%%i The d:/test/set is the compressed package store path%%~ni indicates the name of the compressed package (without the extension of the original file, such as the original file is Duxing.txt compressed Duxing.rar, this situation requires a note Meaning, if there is a Duxing.java in the same directory, will also be added to the Duxing.rar package; to include the original file name, change this section to%%i, and after compression, the name is Duxing.txt.rar).
5. The last line of Ping-n 3 127.0.0.1>nul is 3 seconds after the end of the program, close the window
6. Tips: The creation of this bat file, if placed in the path of the compression source, itself will be compressed, so pay attention to, do not need to delete it. If the bat file is placed outside the path to compress the source, you do not have to consider this issue.

7. A method that does not consider the environment variable, that is, the command explicitly indicates the Rar.exe path:
(My RAR.exe path: C:/Program files/winrar/rar.exe)
@echo off
REM--Sets the specified path to D:/test , and the user can customize
Set "Pt=d:/test"

REM-Gets the names of all files and folders under the specified path
for/f%%i in (' dir/b d:/test ') do (

REM--This is the command argument shown here
"C:/Program Files/winrar/rar.exe" a d:/test/%%~ni.rar d:/test/%%i
)
echo Complete.
Ping-n 3 127.0.0.1>nul

8. Defect : Can only handle the contents of a folder; The object name you want to compress cannot contain spaces.

Explained the principle, you can also modify this code, the proposal in the formal use, please create a new folder, test, consider the various circumstances will have unexpected effects.

Finally wish you to run successfully, thanks to the DOS bar of the unknown mentor ~ ~

REM--Command update 18:42 2008-11-25 support files and file names contain spaces
REM--Http://hi.baidu.com/duxing the world

@echo off
REM--Sets the specified path to D:/test, and the user can customize
Set "Pt=d:/test"

REM-Gets the names of all files and folders under the specified path
for/f "tokens=*"%%i in (' dir/b%pt% ') do (

REM--This is the command argument shown here
RAR a "%pt%/%%i" "%pt%/%%i"
)
echo Complete.
Pause
