display in terminal and log it to a file

Hello, if I am executing a command in DOS, how can I display it into the terminal window as well as log it in a file. So, for example if I want to do dir to view the contents in C:\, I want to view the contents in the terminal window as well as write the same thing to a file as well. So far I have

command1 >> C:\\export.log 2>&1

This will not show anything that command1 executed in the terminal window but rather shows it in export.log file. I want to show in both.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Microsoft itself never made this possible. However, you can do it in UNIX. And, even better...you can use the UNIX ported tee.
