Try the MKS Toolkit from Mortice Kern Systems Inc., 35 King Street North, 
Waterloo, Ontario, Canada N2J 2W9.  Telephone 519 884 2251.  I have been 
using it for a couple years.  It is exactly what you are asking for, a 
k shell (extension of borne shell) command porcessor used in leu of 
command.com.  In addition, it comes with a number of utility programs 
which do what you thought the DOS equivalents would do until you tried 
them, and with many UNIX commands.  The on-line support is also 
knowledgable and very helpful.
