Problem

How can I execute multiple commands in the Windows commandline with just a single line? So for example say I want to perform an SVN update and then copy all of the files to another location... That doesn't work obviously. Is there a character or delimiter like ';' to perform something like this?

Error Output

svn update; copy *.* c:\development\copy\

Yes there is. It's &. will execute command 2 when command 1 is complete providing it didn't fail. will execute regardless.
