      On 11 Nov 18 14:56:31, Deon said the following to Nick Andre:              D> I just downloaded D'Bridge to have a play. I know it can do BINKD in Windows       D> environments - is it possible to have BINKD in DOS? FreeDOS has a network        D> stack       D> and it would be great it the BINKD component could run there.              I don't think its impossible, but its impossible for me to offer tech-support        for such a scenario. You would be on your own and I am not liable for any        problems, lost mail, system crash, dogs and cats living together, mass        hysteria for attempting any of this.              The problem here is that it could take some tap-dancing to make things work.              D'Bridge uses every trick in the book to even run on MS-DOS; and the memory        usage is the concern here - It will depend on how much is left in the base        640k after the network stack is used. When D'Bridge swaps out to call BinkD,        there is also a resident TSR which remains when the shell-code runs.              Nick              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
