   I wonder if it is 'ash'?  

Ash (Adventure SHell) is a text adventure game style shell, with
commands like "up" (for cd ..), "look" (for ls) "look at xxx" (for ls
-l xxx) etc.

Makes for intersting April Fool's Day login shells.

 MS-DOS is the worst text adventure game I have ever played: poor vocabulary,
                       weak parser and a boring storyline.
