I tried building the DOS version.  It compiles but the video.c module
that handles screen I/O hasn't been finished for DOS (the OS/2
equivalents write to windows), but it looks as though the TextWin stuff
for VT102 emulation has been grafted in too.  The missing functions are
all laid out, but haven't been quite finished yet.  It doesn't look to be
a large job.
