Yes, probably that's what I'm looking for...

There's usually some way of doing what you want but whether it's

Well, I didn't mean that my source would not contain some special
conditional-processor. Indeed I'm using
#if DOES_RUN_UNDER_PURE_DOS
...
#else
...
#endif
And, naturally, I try not all my projects to run under DOS 
But this one, which supports programming a batch-file is useful in the
rare cases of running under DOS too.

Again: if someone knows how to get the subst-assignment under DOS
(interrupt, etc.), please let me know.
Thank you,

A quick look at Ralf Brown's Interrupt List
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/user/ralf/pub/WWW/files.html or
http://www.ctyme.com/rbrown.htm (indexed html version with search) shows
INT 0x21 AH=0x60 might be what you want for a DOS only program.

Does anybody know how can I map a network drive? Is it going to work on both
(windows and linux) platforms?

This snippet of code works mapping to a network drive - Windows or Samba.
// We can map via IP address or system name
if(CbxUseIP->Checked)
RemoteName = "\\\\"+EdtIpAddress->Text+AnsiString(ShareName);
else
RemoteName = "\\\\"+EdtComputerName->Text+AnsiString(ShareName);
// An avilable drive letter was selected
AnsiString DriveName = CbxAvailDrives->Text.c_str();
NETRESOURCE nr;
DWORD dwFlags;
ZeroMemory(&nr, sizeof(nr));
nr.dwType = RESOURCETYPE_DISK;
nr.lpLocalName = DriveName.c_str();
nr.lpRemoteName = RemoteName.c_str();
dwFlags = NULL;
if(CbxRemember->Checked)
dwFlags = dwFlags | CONNECT_UPDATE_PROFILE;
Screen->Cursor = crHourGlass;
int rc;
rc = WNetAddConnection2(&nr,EdtPasswd->Text.c_str(), EdtUserName->Text.c_str(), dwFlags);
Screen->Cursor = crDefault;
if(rc != NO_ERROR)
{
// A special message for this
if(rc == ERROR_BAD_NETPATH)
MessageDlg("The network path cannot be found.", mtError, TMsgDlgButtons() << mbOK, 0);
else
GetLastErrorStr( rc );
return false;
}
