then it has this

you have it set so that while there is no exit level, it will set the error level to 1 then print "Bad Command or file name\n\n"
your program will forever be printing the error of "Bad Command or file name\n\n" because it's looped to do so....

or so i think.

In general, it's NOT a good idea to use a conditional check variable to also store data.  Here's an example of what I mean (reduces stupidity bugs which I make frequently):

int done=0;
int age=0;
while(!done)
{ age=calculateSomething();
  done=(age>=26);//same thing as 'if(age>=26){ done=1;}'
}

What if you need to validate data?

watch out for endless loops.

this might make my reasoning a little clearer:

I just pulled that out of my ass, so don't expect it to compile.

throwing in another variable to track can be a pain.

-t.
