This tutorial is relatively simple! We will port from the FreeDOS C programming book on the Conio library. We will port from OpenWatcom Conio to BorlandC Conio.
The compiler we will use in this tutorial will be the BorlandC++ 2.0. It is the last version that supports compiling 8086.
The machine we will be building on is a Tandy 1000 SL/2.
