Understanding commands in FreeBSD
 that are like MS-Dos

 This article is to help newbies that are familiar with MS-Dos to understand commands that Microsoft barrowed from Unix. So, if you know your Dos commands, this will give you a idea on command that you can run in unix to perform the same task that you would be in under Dos. If you need further information on this, do :  man command for example:     
          man chmod
 this would give you all the documentation that you would need to understand
and use chmod.

MS-Dos to Unix cross over information :

CALL - exec

CD - cd

CHDIR - cd
