Well if I had the dos source code it might be possible for me to
do that. To just take function and write a server from that is miles ahead
of my capability. And if I had that capability it might just be too much
work for the results.
That is the problem Steve. With the source code it might be quite
simple to port it to Linux. So simple even I could do it. But since the
author wants to keep the source secret, his choice for sure, he must write
the simple Linux version or it won't happen.
This is THE reason why you sense hostility from the Linux people.
They know it is quick and simple to move a dos c source to Linux. But
no-one has done it, and your saying it will not happen. Well expect to
receive more hostility from us. It is earned.
