Okay; let me expand on that: "No. Not ever."
The ability to run DOS doors is a limitation of the operating system. It is
very difficult to properly overcome this problem without rewriting the
standard NT communications drivers. Your sarcasm will not make the technical
issues go away.
Consider:
An NT device driver is a hornet's nest.
We do not write NT device drivers.
Therefore, we do not have any plans to support DOS doors in Maximus/NT.
Of course, this does not mean that nobody else will do this (such as the
popular SIO.SYS for OS/2 which does exactly what you describe).
