No need, I'm already convinced that this is not the way for me to go.
from the DOS prompt, it works as expected.
You're not running DOS. Most likely the shell you're running is CMD or
PowerShell, attached to a console session that's hosted by either
conhost.exe (default) or openconsole.exe (an open-source build of
conhost.exe that's used by the new Windows Terminal). These are
Windows applications.
I'm running CMD.exe. Sorry, I didn't realise I was using sloppy language.
Thanks for your very detailed repy, Eryk.
