command-prompt

Hi, I know using External Tools options i can run a batch script or a cmd prompt. But here is what i need to do

I want to be able to call a dos prompt inside visual studio, which must be interactive. That way i won't be outside visual studio and can run all my dos commands in it. Is it possible? Or can i extend the command window and capture the commands which are typed and process them using my custom code?

Thanks
