Funny thing about this is after learning on my Win/Dos system using
DJGPP, I went to LINUX and couldn't find conio.h

It seems that the multi-user UNIX world snubs thier noses at the Dos
approach to console interrupts, and I understand I should leave conio.h
for curses.h over there.  But hey, if you're in msdos why not conio.h?
I admit there are porting problems.  This may be an area for reduction
in DPMI support in future NT releases as well I suppose?
