    Good collection. Dosshell was not incorporated in Ver 6.0. A nice flashback to 93 as said by cwk

    UNIX is basically a simple operating system, but you have to be a genius to understand the simplicity. Dennis Ritchie.

    I'm gonna be a little nit-picky here but for those that asked about net, netstat, nslookup, etc..., They are all external dos commands, ac1d was listing the internal dos commands. Internal dos commands can be used on any dos machine, dependent on version of course. The list that ac1d has created looks to be for winnt, win2k or winxp. Win95 and Win98 didnt contain most of the commands and any dos version before 6 have different internal commands that vary depending on version. Sorry to show my nerdy side but I wanted to point this out to dispel any confusion that some people may have and to make sure people dont get the wrong idea about ac1dsp3ctrum's technical abilities by thinking he didnt list all dos commands. as for flashbacks, who remembers using desk.exe running off of 5 1/4 floppies? or for that fact, who remembers having to type in line after line of code from magazines just to play tic-tac-toe! hehe Enough nostalgia for now!

    net stat, nslookup etc.. are native win2k commands. If the command is available on a fresh load of the OS without installing any other support packages it is a native command. DOS commands that become available when installing other packages would be things like RCMD or shutdown.
