Redirect command line into its own output?

Question

Windows CMD shell - any easy way of redirecting the command itself into the output? If I do net localgroup administrators > %computername%-admins.txt, I'd like the output file to contain the net statement as well.

No powershell available to me; pure CMD/COMMAND only.

This is for an audit; the auditors want to see what command generated the output. I'm trying to avoid screenshots or enormous copy-paste from CMD windows.

Maybe kinda lame, but put the command in a batch file and redirect the output of the batch file to your txt file.

c:\echo net localgroup administrators > net_local_administrators.bat c:\net_local_administrators.bat > %computername%-admins.txt c:\del net_local_administrators.bat 

Contents of %computername%-admins.txt (member names cleansed):

C:\>net localgroup administrators Alias name administrators Comment Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to the computer/domain Members ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Administrator MYDomain\Domain Admins User1 User2 The command completed successfully.
