@jws I wouldn't dare download it. I evaluated WxWindows back in 2000/2001 and it was the strongest argument for "Use QT" there ever was.

Man, porting SSL to that thing would be a royal pain in the rear. I'm sure someone else has done it already but my brain goes into roll-your-own mode whenever I see a C:\ prompt.
It's a disease.
@matigo The parts are getting scarce. A bit worrisome but as soon as the 14 thorns in my side are removed, I should never have to re-visit the Jurassic like this again.
Must resist the temptation to fire up that machine I was doing the DOS app.net client on.
I wonder if I can port enough of git to it to put the code in a repository not pronounced CVS
NO NO NO NO
@matigo I'll retire in two hours. Maybe three. Haven't eaten yet and I am still putting the old company distro on a aged Compaq Proliant.
I do now have three, count them, three legacy systems up and running with a full complement of peripherals and ports. All systems are actually itemized and labeled with service sheets so I know the heck they contain. *Novel concept, I know. I used to be able to recall that stuff from memory regardless of how many years they sat but I must concede to father time."
I will not be caught with my knickers down again.
For the third time this hour, I have stopped dead in my tracks and asked myself, "What was I doing just now"
I should probably wrap things up before the question, "Where am I", makes an appearance.
While I haven't slept since Friday night for more than an hour, I've managed to get the old DOS system with TCP networking up. There are legitimate reasons for this :)
Pod lives!
Injects laplink pro over serial and launches it.
Now to install actual DOS accounting data and test the internet upload from the Linux side
