Pipe symbol... The 'pipe' symbol DOS recognizes is the vertical bar. On my keyboard, it's the Capital backslash (\) key. To make a simple thing complex, you can also get this character by holding down the Alt key and typing 1 2 4 on your keyboard's number keypad. Further, you can enter ANY character by holing down the Alt key and typing its three digit decimal ASCII value on the number keypad -- Just add a leading zero for values below 100. Windows Character Map has this available too. It's found between the curly braces {\|} on the fonts (typefaces) I use. Cheers, PW. P.S. I only included the 'pipe' part of the command because on my system the results are more than will fit on the screen and I couldn't catch the output fast enough. P.P.S. You could also try "mem /c > File.txt" and later examine File.txt with Notepad.
