sometimes I feel confused when I work with DOS and Linux at the same time.
I sometimes type ls, cp, rm in DOS and
I sometimes type dir, copy, del in Linux
It's very confusing

I think it will be good if ReactOS uses both of commands

I don't see why; these are different worlds. There are no English road signs in Russia are there?
even if you alias the commands, the parameters would still be different.

you're right but we dont use parameters very much.
I think just aliases will be ok

"we"?
I do A LOT in Windows and *nix from a command line and do I use parameters A LOT. I think it would be ridiculous to have an 'ls' command available in windows if it doesn't behave
exactly the same as in Unix.

I think that should be something you can install later, you can make your programms that can do this jobs with the names:
//C++:
#define command "xy"
int main(char* args[])//not sure!
{
system(command+args);//+args correct??!!
return 0;
}
mfg
rf

exactly.
Or, alternatively, you can get mingw utils, unpack the archive somewhere and include them into your %PATH%.

basically, it's a solved problem
and Ros isn't in the business of duplicating other perfectly good open source solutions (one hopes) just Microsofts closed source solutions - in this case: the dir, copy, delete commands etc

What about 4DOS NT equivalent 4NT (I guess)? It had some useful feats.

MS DOS? None i can remember
If you mean NT command shell, then:
Code: Select all
find "something" [patch]text.txt > result.txt
