Now all I've gotta do is find a DOS compiler... Where's that guy with

Have you had a look at WDOSEX
- it converts a compiled Windows EXE into something that runs in pure
DOS in real mode

Quite astonishing - 1mb strings in pure MSDOS

There are a bunch of extenders that do that, dos4gw, pmode, go32.exe (v2),
and it has been happening since pre-D1 times. That Borland skipped that era,
doesn't mean the rest of the world did :_)
