We alredy had this discussion a few months ago. There's also something in the
FAQ.

On Win95 there is a file called default.pif that is used for console
applications that do not have their own .pif file. Open this file in pifedit
and uncheck "Close after exit". On NT I do not know of an equivalent setting.

On both systems you can start the shell with the "/K" option that keeps the
shell open after a program exits.
If you start your app using 
(WIN NT:)  cmd /K myapplication myparameters
(WIN 95:)  command.com /K myapplication myparameters
The DOS BOX stays open after execution.

I don't know if and how you can implement this in DEV-C++, sorry.
