The solution to this may in fact be already hinted at in the 
quoted Help example:

>Dos("CC " + CurrFilename() + " >results", _DONT_PROMPT_ | 
_TEE_OUTPUT_)

See how two different flags are are passed simultaneously, as  
second parameter to Dos(), by combing them with the bitwise or 
operator '|'?

If you want the window to remain open, replace the first flag
'_DONT_PROMPT_' with '_DEFAULT_'.  It is explained as follows:

 _DEFAULT_ causes the screen to be cleared and the command 
issued.  After completion, the editor prompts with "Press a key 
to  continue...". Once a key is pressed, the editor's screen is 
restored.

That could just be what you are looking for.
