you need to do

for %1 in (*.wav) do flac -V --best "%1" 2> outputfile.txt



sorry, I replyed to quickly that it fully worked, but it's not fully
working, only the output of the last file is saved to the outputfile.
So only the output of the last file in the directory is saved to the
outputfile (I think the outputfile is overwritten every time for each file).
Do you know how I can write the output of EACH file to the same outputfile?
I can't figure it out how to do this. So I want to have an outputfile that
has all the FLAC output of each file.

thanks in advance!

this is true for cmd.exe as well as other unixy shells like bash.
not sure if it works for command.com though.
