For more powerful operation under AmigaDOS, and because it is needed for the ARexx implementation, there are two additional modules. The first is the low-level builtin module Doslib, and the other, the Dos module, is written on top of it (in Python). They work together much the same as the strop and string modules do: you don't use the builtin one directy but rather the higher-level module. So, you will only need to use the Dos module which provides the following:

set of AmigaDOS specific functions, like Relabel, Examine, SetComment, SetFileDate, etc.
functions for waiting on and checking of AmigaDOS signal flags
definition of a set of AmigaDOS flags (break signals, file protection bits etc.)
higher level wrapper and utility functions like touch, AssignAdd, etc.
ArgParser class. This is an argument string parser to parse strings according to a template as understood by the standard AmigaDOS ReadArgs function. The ARexx module uses it for parsing the ARexx command arguments. This is actually a very powerful class!
