> DOS is an independent operating system.

I think if you mean raw dos, you should specify something like MS-DOS
6.22 or OpenDOS 7.01 (with or without the version number).  Me, I
consider "DOS" to mean all real dos versions and all emulations,
including things like Win95's dos box and Linux's DOSEMU.  DJGPP is a
"dos compiler" but that includes all types of dos, emulated or
otherwise.
