I just got some time and made some development on Datalight's MiniCMD (I have 4.11.1475 sources). Major changes:
- Enabled optional features that originally exists (FULL_PROMPT, IF(if exist), GOTO)
- enhanced DIR (non /W mode) output to display file size, date and time.
- added DIR /W mode (must type with space between "DIR" and "/W")
- added IF ERRORLEVEL support

Missing features:
- ECHOing environment variables
- %0 ~ %9
- SHIFT
