Here's what I need to do (and can't use Unix to do it for various
reasons):
have my PC during the day play unattended games between my chess
program and people on ICS. At night, come back and debug. Then
let it run again the next day.

My environment: Windows 95, GNU C, PPP account on Internet
Service Provider.

That's the whole deal. I can't change any of my environment to suit the
end.

Sounds like robofics is another Unix-only solution?
