   You've got to run it under DOSbox or DOSemu but it does work very nicely, much    
   like the DOS-based BBS doors I've written.

   It's not a very actively developed program these days but it's mature and it's    
   very good for what it does.  The author recently did a big update of MM,    
   especially making an "official" Win64 build and cleaning up and modernizing    
   the codebase a bit.   
      
   If someone could make a Chrome OS app out of it, I'd be in heaven so then I    
   could run it on my Chromebook. :)
