DOS as in "Disk Operating System" (the "OS" of the pre-windows era, when
Bill Gates so rightly told us that "640 KB should be enough for anyone") -
impossible.
DOS as in a "DOS box" under Windows (i.e. the system shell, kinda) - just
run the darn thing. If your bin directory is in the PATH, just type
"bash".
That, and RTFM.
