Dos Editor as embedded resource in EXE

I have a DOS text editor from way back when, and I want to embed it as a
resource in a DLL that I'm writing. My goal is to be able to use it as an
alternative light-weigth (and GUI-less) text editor, which is an add-on to
another application that I'll be using the DLL with. How can I:
1. Spawn the DOS editor on request
2. Pass a string, or an object or a variable to it (with a string as the
value)
3. Edit the content and then ensure that they updated content is
synchronized with the main application?

Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.
