Recreate MS-DOS 6.22 in Python

I'm currently attempting to recreate MS-DOS 6.22 in Python 3.9.5. I'm calling it PyDOS. The goal is to be able to run every command with full MS-DOS compatibility.

    How would this work exactly?

    Would you have a barebones Linux installation that bundles Python or something?

    Actually, just a recreation of all commands in a .py script.

    Cool project! how far have you got with it?

    So you are basically recreating the good ol' COMMAND.COM in Python? Sounds like a cool programming exercise for parsers. May I suggest that once you got the basic commands implemented you also add it possibility to run .BAT files non-interactively?
