Hi,
I know that if I want Unix, I would have to buy Unix. I use Unix at work
and school so when I come home to my good old 386, MS-DOS's different
commands and syntax gives real headaches. Could someone please list any
GOOD "AND" RELIABLE shareware utility which simulates [or is it emulating]
Unix command syntax under MS-DOS [also, I would appreciate if you could
list any experienced limitations and problems]. I want the program to
use ls and rm etc etc and ALSO the front slash instead of backslash
when it comes to write path names.

ALSO, does anyone know any "vi" like editor for MS-DOS. It should be
very compatible.

thanks very much in advance.
