ummmm...leviathan, I'm gonna have to disagree with you here.
With euphoria for DOS, (ex.exe) and a few includes (ports.e for sure)
and the fact that you can program in both assembly and machine
languages with euphoria, I would say that anyone willing to work
with octal base could generate a tcp-ip layer or perhaps some sort
of fossil driver emulating a protocol over a DOS winsock SLIP-PPP
connection...
well, it would not be easy, but with some really
good scouring of the net in like the oak archives or simtel
and such, you could find like trumpyt winsock for dos, and
probably also find a wrapper for it written in perhaps BASIC
(which someone had mailed me something similiar) or PASCAL.
Now, most of those wrappers already have the inlined assembly
already done for you to handle the interrupts that call the
network....
Also consider that exw.exe *IS* command line callable, (and of course,
so is ex.exe) works within batch files, and it can call any dll in
win95.

end result? difficult, but not impossible, nor even improbable.
