Its a simple way to resizing the cmd prompt in Windows 7 for 32 bit operating systems.
Just open the cmd prompt by typing the text cmd on search bar on Start menu.
If you press Alt+Enter, that will notice an error that "This system doesn't support full screen mode"
I'm giving a solution here.
Right click on the Title bar of the cmd Prompt window and select the properties menu. It show tabs as Options, Font, Layout, Colors.
Select Layout tab.
Here deselect the Let system position window option. Then increase the width and height of the Window size option.
I am also giving you my default full screen setting.
Set Width as 133 and height as 42 in Window Size,
Set Width as 165 and height as 500 in Window buffer size,
Set Left as 0 and top as 3 in Window position.
Are you clear now?

What are some of the differences between programming at the command line for DOS vs command line in Windows?
DOS is a older Windows OS (behind Windows 95). Command Prompt is in all Windows OS (Windows 95 to Windows 7) DOS only supports FAT file systems DOS can't CD to files with spaces in the address line DOS only supports OLD PC systems (anything that can run Windows 95 is to "new") That is all that I know, as I code in C++

Will DOS programs run on modern laptops?
Yes, although there are various technical limitations that may come into play. For instance, not all DOS applications will run properly in a Command Prompt on Windows. The Command Prompt in Windows Vista and Windows 7, for instance, can only run text-mode DOS applications. 64-bit versions cannot run DOS applications at all. The best workaround is to use DOSBox, a DOS emulator, to run any applications that will not run in the Command Prompt. As for "native" installations, it is still possible to install and run MS-DOS and applications on modern computers, although changes may need to be made in the BIOS to enable hard drive access, and modern sound cards are incompatible with virtually all DOS programs.

How can I get Dos Box and DOS programs to run on a windows 7 64 bit Os?
Windows 7 (32 bit versions) have an emulation of DOS (cmd) that seems much more compatible than running DOS apps in Window XP. You can routinely run WordStar, PC Tools apps, many public domain utilities and various DOS accounting programs in Home, Professional and Ultimate versions of Windows 7. Remember though, they must be 32 bit versions. Windows 7 Professional has an XP compatibility window you can setup. Theoretically, in that mode under the 64-bit version of Windows 7 you might be able to run various DOS apps.
