How to use unix command on Windows?

I am trying to run a shell script on Windows as part of an output pipeline, but not sure how to use the 'unix' command so that it actually works.

Suppose I am using the command:

md "c:\snake"

Which works fine in the command prompt, but when I add it as a 'Pre-Render Script' like this:

unix md "c:\snake"

It doesn't work.

What am I missing? My understanding from the documentation was that the unix command in HScript would send the following text to the system command prompt...

You might well be right, but I was actually just using that as an example. One of the things I'm actually trying to do is run ffmpeg. The command I have works fine in the Windows command prompt, but does nothing when trying to do it using 'unix' in HScript. What I'm looking for is a generalised way to send commands to the command line... I presume there's some way to do that, but I can't figure out the syntax...
