    OK, I have never used RSXNTDJ, but from what I understand, it an
extention that allows compiling of code that uses the Win32 api.  It seems
silly to make a Win32 application that would work in REAL dos, because non of
the Win32 api would be available (it would be just like DJGPP).

    On the other hand, where did you get this TSR that allows LFN on real
dos?
