Hello

I'm interested in learning the different system parameters one can use with the echo command. For example, ECHO %username%, displays the username. Are there any websites, white papers, articles, etc. that details this information

Your responses are highly appreciated. Thank you

That isn't a parameter for ECHO. It's an environment varible. At your
command prompt, enter:

set

That will list more variables for you.

Some good sites:
