ntcmdprompt
Runs the command interpreter Cmd.exe, rather than Command.com, after running a Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) or after starting the command prompt from within an MS-DOS application.
Syntax
ntcmdprompt
Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| /? | Displays help at the command prompt. |
Remarks
- When Command.com is running, some features of Cmd.exe, such as the doskey display of command history, aren't available. If you would prefer to run the Cmd.exe command interpreter after you've started a Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) or started the command prompt from within an application based on MS-DOS, you can use the ntcmdprompt command. However, keep in mind that the TSR may not be available for use when you are running Cmd.exe. You can include the ntcmdprompt command in your Config.nt file or the equivalent custom startup file in an application's program information file (Pif).
