For – Loop through a range of numbers | Windows CMD | SS64.com

Posted by jpluimers on 2017/06/27

Since I always forget:

for /l %1 in (1,2,200) do echo %1 >> text-%1.txt

This creates files with incremental filenames like this:

text-1.txt
text-3.txt
...
text-199.txt

      Since you likely have done that before, please post the solution as a comment (;

        I think there is no way to make this a one-liner, so this is the best (batch file) I could come up with:

        @echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
for /l %%i in (1,2,1000) do (
    set num=00%%i
    echo %%i > text-!num:~-3!.txt
)
