If you're joking, you should have added a ":)" or something. Otherwise I'll
assume you're speaking seriously. In this case, what are you talking about??
I understood that question was about DOS ("batch file") commands, not for Unix
system calls!! 'man' would be completely irellevant to answer a DOS question,
and the fact there's a "pause" system call in Unix (which I'm very well aware
of, thank you very much) is completely irrelevant.
A great quote from /usr/share/games/fortunes/people (on Redhat, at least):
"If you explain so clearly that nobody can misunderstand, somebody will."
