Dear all experts,

I want to save my keyboard input as a file. Type "copy con c:\test.txt" and press Enter, then I can input content. Then there will be an additional test.txt file in the root directory of drive C, and the content is exactly what I input. But I don't know how to end the input. Please give me your advice!

I stared at it for ages and still can't understand it.~
