in thread parsing windows ipconfig /all

Also note that the output of ipconfig is translated from English to what Microsoft thinks(*) is the local language. Good look getting that to work on all non-english versions.


(*) Perhaps one should register a new IETF language tag de-MI (German as translated by Microsoft) in addition to de-DE, de-AT, de-CH, given the significant differencess to de-DE, de-AT, and de-CH. ;-)

    As an Englishman, I've never had the pleasure(!?!) of digging into a non-English version of Windows. Many years ago, before the days of roaming on my mobile, I used Turkish versions during regular visits to Istanbul in internet cafes and side rooms off hotel lobbies. That was quite instructive for improving my Turkish as I recognised the location of the buttons and menu items but had to translate them for them to be useful.
