Having trouble Windows command line SORT via SHELL
#17

Step 2:  Make certain that if on newer versions of Windows, you're going to a CMD window and not a Terminal as they're not always the same in how they handle things.

By going to a CMD window rather than a Terminal, are you referring to this?

"QB64 automatically uses CMD /C when using SHELL, but it is allowed in a command string. Note: CMD alone may lock up program.
Some commands may not work without adding CMD /C to the start of the command line."

I tried adding CMD /C to no avail.
