Been there, seen that, got the T-shirt...

Forget DOS, and your only path, I believe, would be to run 3.1 on
DOS 6.2 with win32.dll (if you can still find it). Then, you might
be able to use Tcl 7.4 with Tk 4.0. Then you'd need an ancient
Python (Tkinter.py and Modules/(_)tkinter.c)...

Now, what's it like in the DeLorean and how is it working
with Doc Emmett L. Brown?
