What do you need to do to use a command-line interface?

To get to the command line on your computer click on the Start button, click on Run, then type "cmd" in the run box. You will go to a black box called DOS. You will also see the command line prompt C:>, this is where you type in DOS commands. You can use DOS commands to do just about anything you can do in Windows except it's more work, you can copy, move, del files, etc. To get out of DOS just type Exit at the command prompt. You need to find yourself a book on DOS commands to know how to work it.

What are the differences between dos and operating system?

The letters DOS stand for Disk Operating System. So DOS is an operating system. It is more commonly referred to as a CLI (Command Line Interface) because you have to type commands one at a time. Any version of Windows (from Windows 95 onward), or the Macintosh OS, are operating systems that have a GUI (Graphic User Interface). (Older versions of Windows, such as Windows for Workgroups 3.11, were basically a GUI that ran on top of DOS. You had to start Windows by typing the command WIN at the command line, or add the command to a file called AUTOEXEC.BAT, so that Windows would automatically start when you booted the computer.)
