Staying on Dos Emulation Screen after .bat file finishes

[jackp...@astraweb.com]

How do you keep the DOS Emulation screen active and at the same point after a batch file has finished,
WITHOUT using the "pause" command? Using windows 7, 64bit here.
Thanks

I realize if you are already in the DOS window when you execute the batch file that it stays there then,
but i am executing it with a click on the .bat in a folder on windows, and it closes after completing
unless a PAUSE command is the end of the batch file. I do not want to use pause since at that time any
key entered closes the DOS window if executed from a windows desktop.

There used to be an option to close thee window automatically after the
program (batch file in this case) finished. You could disable it so
that the window would stay open. However, it's not usable for anything
else. The only thing you can do is close it at your convenience.

There may still be a setting like that somewhere.
