It seems you are confusing a Win32 console (text) mode application with a DOS
application. Althought they look alike, and are run from the same shell, they
are two different beasts:
When you are in a text console window (aka 'dos box') you can run two types
of console applications: DOS or Win32.
Since you are using a Windows compiler, the console applications it generates
are running in the Win32 environment. To get a DOS console application you
need to use a DOS compiler (either the DOS port of GNAT or buy the Pharlap
DOS extender for OA).
