Hi, the MS-DOS FrontEnd ?? Mathematica 1.x run with MS-DOS and was a bare Kernel and not a FrontEnd. Since version 2.2 for Windows Mathematica support MathLink and the kernel can call a console application. The FontEnd is desinged to communicate with a Mathematica kernel and your application must act like a kernel if the FontEnd should call it.
