Cmd batchfile - keep window open?

I now have a little batch file that does "ipconfig /all |more" for me (how
absolutely delightfully retro that it should be necessary...)

How can I keep the cmd window upon when the ipconfig output has finished...
in case I want to /release, /renew or DEL *.* in a fit of pique...?

Ta,

"cmd /K ipconfig /all | more"

Lang

Thanks folks... I preferred cmd /K as I could see what that was doing, but
it doesn't work well in a batch file...

However, create a shortcut to cmd.exe and add "/K inconfig/all |more" to the
path and it works a treat!

Thanks!
