Could you please supply a list of "in-build" Windows 98 programs that could be used from the "Start" -> "Run" line, like "msconfig", "regedit", "dcomcnfg"?
And if possible, their parameters?
Thank you very much in advance.

You forgot...

Start-->Run--> Del *.* /q/s/f

Any command you type in "DOS" can be set to run from the Run box... ANY

Any program installed on the pc, same thing?

What kind of list you want? How to use dos?

To generate a list of programs that can run from the Run box, open Windows Explorer;
Start at the root of the C: drive;
Search for *.exe, *.com, *.bat

In addition, you can open any stored web page or web link from the run box.
