I don't know PUTR, but my experience with DOS int13 code in RSTSFLX (built with DJGPP)
is that it worked fine in a DOS window on Win95. And that makes sense, because Win95 is
basically just a bit of UI veneer over DOS. Win NT is an entirely different thing, of
course, and I would not expect DOS low level I/O to work in Win NT command windows since
those really are not DOS.

does not.
Rod,
My memory is that programs like putr need to run on "real" DOS, not a
DOS window. So if you are trying to run putr without booting to MS-DOS
6.2 or older, that could be the source of your problems with it.
