Command Line Window Closes

Under Visual C++ 6.0, if you made a command-line program, it would stay open
after execution, and then you would press any key to close it.

Under Visual Studio 2005, if you make a C++ command line program, the
program instantly closes after execution (not even enough time to read what
it says) if the program created its own command line window. (It does stay
open if you run the program from a command-line.)

What do I have to do to make a command-line program that does not
automatically close its own window after execution, but allows the user to
easily close it (e.g. by pressing one key) after execution?

Thanks,

tharpa

Hi all, I was getting a 500 error and someone adviced me to run the php file from the command line to check what errors that would come up with. Great idea which I'd like to use, but when I use the Windows "run" box to do this, I see a window open and close so quickly that there's no way for me to read what's come up. How can I force the window to stay open after the program has finished ?

I'm just starting to learn JavaScript, so far I like it! I want to add some JS to my Ebay listings, to manually open a pop-up window. It works OK, but the JS gets rejected by Ebay. If I can't use JS in my listing, is there a way of using JS to resize a current window, and remove the toolbars etc, so it looks like a pop-up? --

Hi, I'm using in my script command os.system('command') on Windows XP. Each time the os.system command is used, python opens an empty ms-dos command window (the black one) and then closes it. So when in one script the os.system command 50 times is used, I see 50 black windows. Is there a way of how to suppress this unnecessary command windows to be opened?
