I saw that Web Page question earlier and started messing around with GetNet and WGet ( they're both very nice ) But, I was wondering if there is a way to use these programs (or clones) in Pure DOS. Networking is good (in case your wondering, I wanna use it in my TUI.)
Long story short: Dial-up and Ethernet connections supported in Pure DOS? Ways to retrieve files from the internet once that is accomplished?

You need a packet driver (dunno if there's an equivalent for dial-up) and a DOS port of wget, like the one here: http://www.rahul.net/dkaufman/
