Have a look at the gcc for win32 project at http://www.cygnus.com. This project includes a shell, utilities and compiler. With the provided libraries it is possible to port a fair number of unix programs to run under NT. You can also use gcc to write win32 programs. The site provides more details about ported applications. -----Original Message----- From: Shawn Ramsey <shawn@cpl.net> To: OCXFiles@aol.com <OCXFiles@aol.com>; questions@FreeBSD.ORG <questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Date: Monday, 27 October 1997 10:34 Subject: Re: I know how stupid this question is but.. > > >>Do you know if there is anything that will run under DOS/Windows 95 that >will >>work like a DOS Box, but really be a UNIX/Linux box?
