Shouldn't be too difficult if it's OK to port it as a Win32 Console
Application. Of course a lot of people will then belive it's still a
"DOS program", since it will appear the same way as the DOS version
on the screen. However such a program won't run on a DOS-only or
Win-16 PC. And on a Win-32 PC; it will smoothly coexist with other
Win-32 applications, and should continue to work even when DOS suport
will finally be removed from Windows.
