I have a batch file that echoes stuff into another file. I want it to echo %prompt% into a file. I don't want it to display the variable because it isn't defined yet. How can I make it echo plain text. so like if %prompt%==4 I want it to echo %prompt% not the value 4.

cd Temp
set s=
set /p s=:
echo if %query%==%s% ( >> bot.temp
cd..
cd..
make


Sometimes I add why I need this... Im making another language out of batch. It will let people script their own chatbot kind of like chatscript(Which inspired me to make this) it inspired me because I couldn't use it since I couldn't get it to work. So I found an alternative. Make my own!

If you mean that your want the bot.temp file to contain the string
if %query%==%s% (

Then it's pretty simple: double up the '%' character.
echo if %%query%%==%%s%% ( >> bot.temp
