A fully functional one, yes.

And too few Ronnie.

Behold. Behoid, I say, the fruits of my sick labor!

And you have that knowledge in the back of your head that the people who assembled the hardware decades ago had no idea of the weird stuff you are making it do.

Been forever since I messed with curses.

…what made it harder is that I refused at the outset to use a protected mode DOS extender. Fun stuff but it makes your brain hurt after a while :D

Was trying to find a photo I posted of the DOS box I was developing APP.EXE on telnetted into a Linux box and running texapp but app.net is being impossible to deal with right now. Has a NIC with PKDRV working and functional TCP-IP networking.

The hardest part of the APP.EXE thing was https and massive chunks of JSON on a system that can only address 64K at a time.

The solution was being ported over from some image editing and analysis stuff I did years ago. Utilizes XMS and a scrolling 64K window through it.

Some assembly required. ;)

New LapLink serial cable on the way. Yes, I have the ends and cable to make one but 7.95 plus shipping beat cussing with a soldering iron.
