Hello, Robin!

Might I suggest you read the following excellent article by Peter Norvig: "Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years". Here's the link: http://norvig.com/21-days.html

I hope you find the article insightful.

@ra527: Even after having been banned twice, why do you insist on posting such rude comments? You still have a lot to learn, not just about programming (your code is sloppy at best) but also on how to behave.

From your screenshot, I see that you are running DOSBOx. DOSBox is an emulator for the old MS-DOS. The wiki page http://www.dosbox.com/wiki/Main_Page clearly states that:

DOSBox also comes with its own DOS-like command prompt. It is still quite rudimentary and lacks many of the features found in MS-DOS, but it is sufficient for installing and running most DOS games.

It is more than likely that DOSBox does not support the "ipconfig" command, which would explain why you are receiving the illegal command error.

Out of curiousity, why are you using DOSBox as a programming environment? It was never designed for such a purpose.

Although it wasn't asked for, I would imagine that a backslash \ would be required to terminate all but the last line.

I would also imagine that two terminating curly braces }} would be required on the last line.
