TASM is an assembler, not a compiler. Actually, that's what the "asm" part of the name stands for. I recommend you get a more modern one, such as NASM or MASM. Most command line programs exit when they're done (so do GUI programs, but their "done" is usually when the user says "done"). Start command line programs from the command line interface and you'll be able to see their output even after they exit.
