Use semicolon (;). You can read about different shell modes here.

Like the other answer say you use the semicolon ;.

Note that shell mode (contrary to the package manage mode) is not sticky - that is whenever you execute command you are back in Julia REPL. Sometimes when I want to execute many command line command a good workflow is to type ;bash (or ;cmd on Windows), do all your stuff and then come back to Julia by executing exit - this works quite well and I found it to be most convenient.
