- Assuming that the name of this batch file is LOGON.BAT,if
- "YOU" wants to work on the system, she would type: LOGON
- YOU. The batch file would execute and treat YOU as>>>>%1
- (The replaceable parameter).The first line compares %1YOU
- with YOU(what was typed). Since they are equal,the second
- command part, which says "GOTO YOU (YOU being a label) is
- executed.This label is the fourth line of the batch file.
