How can I make my commands run in NppExec run in cmd, as opposed to the built in console, which doesn’t work with things like: “Press any key to continue”, which only works when you press enter?

You want to take a look at cmd /? output and http://ss64.com/nt/. Using
startalong withcmd /cwill give an external window and usingcmd /kwill keep it in the nppexec console. One thing I don’t like about the/koption is that it really isn’t true as ‘any key’ doesn’t do the trick and Enter needs to be used.Test it out with
cmd /k pauseandstart cmd /c pause.Notice the
startoption has the window close, so any history will go away too. If that’s important then substitute/kfor the/cand useexitwhen done.
