Look like my DOS skills are becoming rare. Do you think I can make money out of it?

Yeah, when it comes to command line, bash is teh god.

So many times I wanted to press tab in windows, or the up arrow...

The up arrow? You know, if you got a Windows version old enough that it doesn't support up arrow out of the box (win 98?), you just put doskey in autoexec.bat (might need full path). Works at least since DOS 5.0, and I think I even used it on DOS 3.3

 

Tab on the other hand, they tried to implement that in XP (you might need TweakUI to enable it), but it's still crap compared to readline (bash).

for file in `find 2dobjects/ -type f -name *.2d0 -print`; do echo $file $C; ((C++)); done

Is a valid command line in Bash - Not only would it print out the 2d-objects in the 2dobject folder (not BMP's), but it'd also print the number (or ID if you like) of the object afterwards. Don't tell me that's not a useful feature
