This snippet of code is a batch script written for the Windows Command Prompt, and it performs the following steps:
What the code does:
-
Iterates through
*.f*.mp4
files:
The outermostfor
loop iterates through all.mp4
files in the current directory where the filenames match the pattern*f*.mp4
(i.e., filenames containing the letterf
and ending with.mp4
). -
Extracts the base filename before the first dot (
.
):
The secondfor
loop (with/f "tokens=1 delims=."
) takes the filename portion of the current.mp4
file (without its extension), splits it by the first dot (.
), and assigns the first token (portion of the name before the first dot) to the variable%%t
. -
Looks for matching
.m4a
files:
The thirdfor
loop examines a potential.m4a
file (%%t.f*.m4a
), where%%t
is the extracted token from the previous step. It checks whether an.m4a
file exists whose name matches this pattern. -
Checks for file existence:
Within the finalif exist
statement, it checks if a file matching the constructed name (e.g.,some_name.f*.m4a
) exists.
Summary of Purpose:
The code processes .mp4
files in the current directory whose names match *f*.mp4
. For each of these files, it attempts to locate similarly named .m4a
files (matching the pattern extracted_name.f*.m4a
) and verifies if they exist.
This script might be part of a larger process that handles .mp4
and .m4a
files with related naming conventions, potentially preparing for renaming, conversions, or additional file operations.
