title: "@echo on" for a post build event batch file in Visual Studio 2012
body: <p>I'd occationally like to see the actual build event script for debugging purposes.  I've tried leading the script with @echo on which should work according to the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b0bktkzs%28v=vs.110%29.aspx" rel="noreferrer">documentation</a>, but I've yet to see anything other than exe or explicit "echo some text" output in the build output.</p>
  
  <p>Here's my build event:</p>
  
  <pre><code>echo on
  cd $(ProjectDir)_dev
  PostBuildEvents.bat $(ConfigurationName) $(TargetName)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I do see this text in the output, but nothing from within the .bat file.  I also tried added echo on to the top of the batch file but that did not work either.</p>
