Since you don't understand them you probably shouldn't use my tools.
No, Quoth is right. DOS refers to the operating system itself. Believe it or not, GUI applications existed for DOSes, including MS-DOS. Windows was one.

cmd.exe is the NT command line interface. It is not DOS. DOS used COMMAND.COM.
