In the Help file for @INC...

Should

set start=5
set result=%inc[start]
echo %result

not be this;

set start=5
set result=%@inc[start]
echo %result

Seems to be missing an @

I think it should really be

set result=%@inc[%start]

It looks like it's missing a % as well as an @.

Well, according to the line;

If string is the name of an environment variable, its value is used whether or not it is preceded by a percent mark % without modifying the value of the variable. To actually increment the value of the variable var use

I think it should be just start , not %start.

Either works.

The help is missing the @.

However, that function is generally obsolete (replaced by the SET /A functionality). Or just use @EVAL (which @INC calls anyway).
