Maybe what Georg et al really need is "dossh" and "vmssh",

I can only speak for myself, and I consider the Unix toolbox(!)
far superior to DOS cmd.exe with or without extensions.

That is indeed true - over time bash has been extended and extended over and
over again and it is dam powerfull now.

Admitting that does not stop me from from saying that some fundamental
design philosophies where short sighted.
