XARGS Command

The XARGS command allow to run a command with arguments from the standard input.

Synopsis

XARGS [command ...]

Run a command with arguments from the standard input.

As pBat reads through the standard input, only newlines will be removed from final parameters. If a line read from the standard contains spaces or delimiters (ie. tabs, comma, semicolon) then the whole line will automatically be quoted by xargs to create a single parameter.
