Default Can a Windows batch script perform the equivalent of a cat until the end of file delimiter (cat foo eof)?

SUMMARY:

In this thread, we created a few methods of randomly setting timezones:

For completeness, we should summarize a few methods of timezone display:

Namely...
1. Synchronize Windows 10 system time
a. Windows Settings Time & Language Date & time Related settings
b. Add clocks for different time zones Internet Time (tab)
c. [Change settings...]
d. [x]Synchronize with an Internet time server Server: time.windows.com

2. Display additional Windows 10 clocks
a. Windows Settings Time & Language Date & time Related settings
b. Add clocks for different time zones Additional Clocks (tab)
c. [x]Show this clock (Clock 1) Select time zone [choose desired tz]
d. [x]Show this clock (Clock 2) Select time zone [choose desired tz]

3. Set Windows 10 system time zone
a. Windows Settings Time & Language Date & time Related settings
b. Add clocks for different time zones Date and Time (tab)
c. Time zone [Change time zone...] [choose desired system tz]

Freeware tested:
1. clocx adds a simple but large round desktop clock of a chosen timezone.

2. dsclock adds a configurable desktop digital clock of a chosen timezone.

3. T-clock simply replaces the taskbar clock (same system timezone choice).

If desired, we can modify the taskbar system clock display using freewa
o T-clock https://github.com/White-Tiger/T-Clock
which also has "line spacing" options that dsclock freeware doesn't offer.

and which has a checkbox option to display the meridiem indicator or not:

but, as far as I'm aware, T-Clock freeware is bound to the system clock.
