Create a Console application that behaves like the dos shell. And should work in the same way as the command prompt of windows. Your shell should support the following commands:

the 'code' variable was taken from your code. If you dont know what your code is doing then you need to figure that out before you try and adapt it.
I've given you the syntax for the if-else block and told you which parts it replaces. You need to do some of the work yourself if you are going to learn anything.
I'm busy over the weekend so have a go, play around with the code and try to figure it out. If noone else chimes in i'll check in on the thread in a couple of days.
