Hello,

This is not exactly what you asked for, but you could simply redirect the
output with something like "ipconfig /all > ipconfig..txt" then read the
contents of ipconfig.txt (or whatever name you gave to the output file).
You must take care where you put the output file, though: you must have the
rights to write in that folder.

Of course my solution is only a quick trick, the answer to your question
would be much cleaner and much more interesting.
