Accessing Batch Functions in another batch file

Question

Alright, so lets say we have a file called \"lib.cmd\" it contains

@echo off
GOTO:EXIT

:FUNCTION
     echo something
GOTO:EOF

:EXIT
exit /b

T

Answer 1

@echo off

(
rem Switch the context to the library file
ren init.cmd main.cmd
ren lib.cmd init.cmd
rem From this line on, you may call any function in lib.cmd,
rem but NOT in original init.cmd:
call :FUNCTION

rem Switch the context back to original file
ren init.cmd lib.cmd
ren main.cmd init.cmd
)
