commands after 'quarto render' line don't execute in Windows batch file

[jinlin82]

For example, I have a windows batch file: qmd-html.bat

quarto render %1 --to html
echo %1
pause

when i run qmd-html.bat "hello.ipynb" in CMD

the first line quarto render %1 --to html is fine, but the lines after it don't execute.

System: Windows 7 64bit

The issue here is that the quarto command on windows is implemented as a batch file itself. When you call it, it stops executing the current batch file and starts executing the quarto bat file. Instead you should be able to do:

call quarto render %1 --to html
echo %1
pause

It's ok now, thanks.
