MS-DOS on Cool-Retro-Term

Hi! In this video, we'll see DOS programs on Cool-Retro-Term.

The programs themselves are being executed on a DOS PC.

How it works:
That PC is connected via null modem cable to my Pi 4.
"MODE COM1:9600,n,8,1" configures the PC's serial port.
CTTY is used to transfer the DOS console and its I/O to the AUX device ("CTTY AUX").
On the Pi, minicom is run inside cool-retro-term.

PS: If you like to run more sophisticated text mode programs,
you can try using DOSemu with cool-retro-term.
To do so, use a pair of USB serial converters and a null-modem cable.
