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.
