It sounds like you might be using MSVC(++). If this is the case, you
should consider either (a) installing a UNIX-style C compiler (CygWin32,
http://www.cygnus.com/), or (b) including <dos.h> instead.

I got Lynx 2-7-2 to build with MSVC, but the lack of Winsock support in
Lynx meant I had to stub out all the interesting network code, making the
port useless. I suggest EMX/RSXNT (haven't made it work) or Cygnus
GNU-Win32 (works ok, but you need to get a curses library or slang,
neither of which is bundled with b19.)
