Actually my aims are purely selfish. As of yet, I have not seen any good *recent* code come out of attempts to program for DOS, in any kind of maintainable way. And invariably, it's people like you and us that end up having to fix it.

I would happily write code for a 386 if I had one, if it had any kind of decent OS support that was capable of using the CPU to its full potential, and you know as well as I do that 16-bit is limiting even on a 386.
