    Amazingly, after nearly 40 years of IP networking, there is still no single universal command for returning just your IP address.

        @nlghtmaremoon Those both return a lot more than just your IP address.

              @toksyuryel I see... But You wouldn't want to go much simpler than "ipconfig" there is a lot to TCP/IP If you say just "IP" are we talking IP V4 or IP V6 (most PC's have one of each now) Are we a local IP or an outside IP, then we need subnet... and so on.
