Command line

A few hours ago the base part of FreeDOS version 1 was released.

Now is probably a good time to port all the relevant FreeDOS commands: move, diskcopy, diskcomp, chkdsk, fc, ... to reactos.

Some of them are written in assembly and would inherently not be portable (deltree, ...).

Well as long as windows has these application(and they have all the ones 
you mentioned excluding move which is internal to cmd) they can be moved 
to ReactOS\base\applications which is where we keep all these apps.  
Though, we might want to stay away from the asm ones.  My question is 
whether we are going to do vendor drops and treat them like wine code 
where we sync them back all the time and submit patches back to the 
original project to get them when we sync again or whether we we are 
just going to add them to the our tree?

Either way, I can probably help in the process to move them over.
