Execute "echo" on windows

[Shmuel C]

I want to execute an "echo" command on windows - no sure how.  I tried this:

package main

import (

  "log"

  "os/exec"

)

func main () {

   cmd := exec.Command("echo", "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%")

out, err := cmd.Output()

if err != nil {

log.Println(err.Error())

return

}

print(string(out))

}

'echo' (or echo.exe) cannot be found in the PATH - how do I go about setting this up?  (Obviously from a command prompt I can execute an echo command)

I think echo is a shell built-in on Windows (in cmd.exe).

Just do:

    fmt.Println(os.Getenv("ALLUSERSPROFILE"))
