DOS ain't dead

Can Wordgrinder be used in DOS? (Users)

!=, but promising enough. Unfortunately the Windows binary is compiled with MingW64. I asked the author to compile it with MingW, because that would be a possible DOS binary. Many GNU program has MingW builds running perfectly on DOS, even GUI programs, not just console apps.

Unicode support is implemented on DOS many times. Laaca's Blocek, the wysywyg Flwriter and the DOS version of MINED all have Unicode support, and it's just the text editors and word processors. IFS drivers are also on the list. And MPXPlay. And Links. And WordGrinder already has it so it's not required to be implemented at all :D it already is. Perhaps the MingW build will work for us with HX. Also I'll try to compile it with DJGPP, but I'm almost shure it won't work.

DOS isn't about why. It's about why not.
