:: Here's a one-line NT command (but a LONG line!)
:: one that splits all the date parts out, putting
:: each one into it's own variable (weekday, day, month, year)
for /f 'tokens=1-4 delims=/ ' %%a in ('date /t') do (set weekday=%%a& set day=%%b& set month=%%c& set year=%%d)


:: And here's NT code that puts the time into the environment
for /f %%a in ('time /t') do set time=%%a


:: Here's a simple way to see if today is Monday (or any other day)
date /t | find 'Mon'
if not errorlevel 1 goto MONDAY
goto OTHERDAY"
