Has anyone (successfully) ported macput and/or macget to an MS-DOS machine?
Anyone have any thoughts on doing so?

The purpose of this is to simplify the transfer of images from a Wang
Professional Imaging Computer (PIC) to MacPaint.  Currently, we make a
MacPaint-format file on the PIC, then use VT-100 emulation on a Wang PC
and MacTerminal on the Mac to move the file.  Then, we use Set File to change
the file type/creator.  With macput, we should be able to send directly from
the PIC, and not have to use Set File.

Thanks,
