				actually , no . you can write source in
your favourite editor ( DOS or otherwise ) and use the command line
complier . the .EXE must run under windows , though ... however , if
you're that much against windows , you're probably not interested in
TPwin . if it can make DOS apps , i haven't found it . notable , though
, is that you can add two lines of code to any TP DOS app and have it run
in a text window , happily ignoring the 640 KB barrier .
