Cool way to do ipconfig (or any dos command)
I just learned this one today I can’t believe that after 20 or more years of playing around with computers that I have not found it sooner. Whenever I do a dos command and want to save it I do this
Code:
ipconfig /all >> C:\tcp.txt
( If want to run that command you have to run it as administrator ) Then I would open tcp.txt and copy and paste that to where I actually wanted it . Today I found out how to skip that step and send it directly to the clipboard
Code:
ipconfig /all | clip
and now I can just right click and paste it wherever I like

And here is the result

Thanks for sharing. Nice find. I did not know that either.


You can use code boxes in your posts to prevent lines of info from wrapping at just the wrong point:

Code:
ipconfig /all | clip




This is how I saw the info wrap in your post:

It would be worse if I were reading your post via cell phone.
