What are you really trying to say is that DOS looks like *NIX.

Well, they posted couple links here for unix, with some good tutorials. What do you like to use unix/linux for?

dos --- linux (some info)

md --- mkdir
cd --- cd

dir ---- ls -la
dir/w --- ls (comes from list)

del ---- rm (comes from remove)
rd/deltree ---- rm -r

copy --- cp (comes from copy)
type ---- cat

pwd = Shows where you are in the file system

ls -l = List files and folders

grep = Searchs for files from your folder you are in

man (command) = UNIX manual pages (and Linux)

| = used to do two or more commands at the same time like "ls -l | grep"

info (command) = Info pages

Most of these command's are the same as UNIX command's and UNIX came out in the 1960's :P
