- GOTO
-
- The GOTO internal command is used with BATCH processing to control the command
- flow. The command following the specified label will be the next one executed
- in the BATCH file. GOTO cannot be executed directly from the keyboard.
-
- GOTO <label>
-
- <label> must be defined elsewhere in the BATCH file, on a line beginning with a
- colon (:), followed by up to eight characters, usually just letters and
- numbers. It can also contain just about any other characters, except for
- DOS special characters. Labels can be longer than 8 characters, but only
- the first 8 are used. Upper and lower case don't matter; LABEL1 is
- equivalent to label1. The GOTO command can appear before or after the line
- defining the <label>.
