Greetings..

I'm currently using the Modula-2 Compiler by Borland.. I must say that it
has a fairly large library, but every once a while, I find myself looking
all over the library for a command that's not in there... (oh yea, I'm using
PC-DOS)
Anyway, I'm working on a short-program that can make my life either in dos,
and I need to import DOS commands.. (you know, like copy, exist, cd, etc)
I found a way to do it. but it's TOO sloppy.. Do any of you have a short
routine that can import dos commands?? (I think "shell" is a better word for
it)
Also, do any of you know how to make my program pick up parameters?? Like
%1, %2 in dos??

Thanks..
