If - Adds intelligent branching to scripts
NOT/S, WARN/S, ERROR/S, FAIL/S, EQ/K, GT/K, GE/K, VAL/S, EXISTS/K, NOREQ/S
NOT - reverses the interpretation of the result. WARN - true if previous return code is greater than or equal to 5. ERROR - true if previous return codes is greater than or equal to 10; only available if FailAt is set to greater than 10. FAIL - True if previous return code is greater than or equal to 20; only available if FailAt is set to greater than 20. EQ - a EQ b: true if the text of a is equal to the text of b (disregarding case). GT - a GT b: true if the text of a is greater than the text of b (disregarding case). Use NOT GT for less than. GE - a GE b: true if the text of a is greater than or equal to the text of b (disregarding case). Use NOT GE for less than or equal to. VAL - a VAL b: true if the text of a and b is identical (disregarding case). EXISTS - true if the specified file or directory exists. NOREQ - suppresses error requesters NOTES: if more than one of the three condition-flag keywords (WARN, ERROR, FAIL) are given, the one with the lowest value is used. You can use local or global variables with If by prefacing the variable name with a $ character. Example: If EXISTS Work/Prog Type Work/Prog HEX Else Echo "It's not here" EndIf
