Commit Hook Error

Hello all! I am working on some simple commit hooks for my repository,
and I ran into a slight issue.

I am using some easy batch commands to grab information from the svnlook
tool so I can send emails about the commit, but "svnlook author" is
being stubborn. Running from the command line, svnlook author gives the
correct committer's username, yet this code:

FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i in ('%SVNDIR%\svnlook author -r "%REV%"
"%REPOS%"') do SET TOOLOUTPUT=%%i
SET AUTHOR=%TOOLOUTPUT%

FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i in ('%SVNDIR%\svnlook date -r "%REV%" "%REPOS%"')
do SET TOOLOUTPUT=%%i
SET DATE=%TOOLOUTPUT%

SET SUBJECT="%REPOSNAME% updated by %AUTHOR% on %DATE%"

Will produce a subject of "Repository updated by on Sat 09/05/2009"
This is obviously rather frustrating, since the exact same command works
on date but not author. I could just tell the commands to append their
information to a file, but then it'd be harder to make email subject
lines, etc like the one above.

Any ideas?
