Windows batch file issue

[DarkRanger]

I need a batch file to check if a file exists, if it does, it asks the user for a new file name, if it doesn't it creates the file and writes to it. This is the code:

Code: Select all

@echo off
set /p Filen = Please type a file name: 
echo filename is %Filen%
:existing
if exist %Filen% goto newfile
if not exist %Filen% goto newfile

:makeline
set /p linetext = Please enter a line of text: 
echo %linetext% >> %Filen%
echo File has been created!

:newfile
set /p filen = File exists. Please type a new file name: 
goto existing

pause

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

And out of interest sake, how will the code look for execution in linux?
