Of course they do - they can use input redirection just like Unix.
But the FOR /F option I mentioned is explicitly for iterating over
the contents of a text file. And of course you can use backticks(`)
to TYPE a file into a command, in place of a file list, say.

The XP command line tools are much better than the early DOS
stuff - although still nowhere near to Unix shells.
