I want to rename files with a batch command and capture the original and renamed files in a list in order to provide a cross reference (doing a DIR /OS >file both before and after the batch file is not rigourous enough).



The file below carries out the renaming fine, but my understanding is not good enough to get the output bit working (if it even is possible). Also, the output in the example below is different depending on whether output is to file or screen.



I want to be able to understand more of this:



@echo off
set /a c=%1
setLocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
For %%G in (*.tif) do (
echo %%G >infile.txt
ren %%G abc.!c!.tif
set /a c=c+1
echo %%G >outfile.txt
)
endlocal

          All I need to do now is put in a test to stop it renaming again the first file it renamed (can happen depending on the number being used in var 'c' and the original file names).
