ML1 runs on DOS but will compile for just about anything. I have used it
to compile for Linux using DOSEMU and FREEDOS. Eventually (time
permitting) I will port the executable to Linux. One adavntage to DOS
is that the compiler executable can be run on the greatest number of
systems; Windows, Linux and DOS, as-is.
