There are two reasons this is not going to work.

First, "SelectSaver" has more than 8 letters in it, so DJGPP Perl is
going to be unable to read SelectSaver.pm.  It will try to read a file
named SelectSa.pm instead.  Good old DOS.  This is why I had to name
my modules like "Unattend::Inifile" and not "Unattended::Inifile".

Second, and more problematic, DJGPP Perl does not support sockets.
Run "perldoc perldos" (even on your Linux machine) and read the
section about "Shortcomings of Perl under DOS".  Fixing this would be
hard, I think; you would have to teach Perl to use the MSCLIENT
network stack.

This is yet another thing which a Linux-based boot disk would fix.
Maybe I will start playing with one this weekend.
