Nope. No command promt for WM 5. There are some dos emulators for ppc, but it really doesn't have the same functionality as Command Promt.

There isn't a command prompt but there is an equivalent to the Start -> Run in windows.
Hold down the action button (centre of the Directional pad) and then tap and hold the the clock at the top of the screen for about a second or two. Release both, clock first, and a menu should pop up under the clock with "Run" in it. From there you can run any application you want and specify arguments if needs be. | |||||||||

Sweet, that's good to know. Unfortunately it doesn't solve the problem. I want to use a console-type program, WORDS. It's a one-of-a-kind Latin dictionary. I figured if I could get a program to run the DOS version, it would work fine. However, pDOSBox doesn't work too well, and really is too powerful for my purposes (since I really don't want to run DOS games or anything like that). I just want something to act like Windows' command prompt.

Sadly you can't run DOS applications natively on the PPC due to different architectures, Dosbox or something similar is your only option to be honest. Unless you want to learn to program on the Axim and port the program across...
I'd like to learn to write programs for the Axim, but don't have the time to get into it... | |||||||||
