I have a Win32 console/command line/batch version if you still want it.
I had to build it because the _official_ DOS version won't parse
fireplace.inc (firepl~1.inc not found).  As a bonus, it is also now
32 bit native instead of 16 bit using wowexec/ntvdm, and as such runs faster
(and i can control its priority).
