This is just a brief announcement of the Waterloo TCP system which is available
via anonymous ftp to sunee.uwaterloo.ca [129.97.128.196] in pub/wattcp.
Waterloo TCP is a new package, not a rewrite of MIT's work. It currently
only supports Ethernet packet drivers. If you are interested in creating
your own applications, the programming language is Turbo C 2.0 and it
resembles the BSD environment. Sample application programs with source are:
Program Bytes Comments
FINGER.EXE 24,866
LPR.EXE 30,990 Few features but easily expandable
LPQ.EXE 25,104
TCPPORT.EXE 22,986 Like TNGLAS
PING.EXE 29,844
TEL.EXE 40,920 Very simple
Both applications and development libraries are available for free.
There is also a developers manual which includes a tutorial, a full reference
with examples, and of course much more. The manual has costs $40 is
recommended if you are going to be doing a project with Waterloo TCP, it
also funds my work.
NOTE: most of the library source is not available and will not be available
for some time. Sorry, but that is unnegociable at this exact time.

(Silly question, >probably.) You can try the less sophisticated LPR available from the Waterloo TCP collection. It does not do DOS->UNIX conversion so it may answer your needs immediately. Full source to LPR (and the TCP library) are available via anonymous ftp as is the executable. FTP to sunee.uwaterloo.ca [129.97.128.196] and get one of the following: pub/wattcp/apps.zip - just the compiled executables pub/wattcp/src.zip - applications with source code and precompiled tcp library, needs TC 2.0 or TC++ If you are truly adventurous, you can get the complete source code to the applications and libraries in a file denoted only by the date. I'ld start with either apps.zip or src.zip.
