I've never seen DOS sources. Also, DOS/Batch is a later version with more
stuff in it. DOS V4 might be better.
On the other hand, DOS is a truly evil operating system. I don't know its
internals, but just from using it you can tell it should never be used as a
model.
RT-11 is very clean. I've worked with V2A (the FB version when possible, SJ
when I didn't have enough memory). They are very simple and compact; the UI is
the old TOPS-10 style, not the newer bloated "DCL" interface. So a V2 era
edition would be a good way to go.
