This doesn't make much sense within the context of this discussion. With a full-featured DOS-based 'Net access program (such as Net-Tamer), all possible Internet functions (Mail, Usenet, Ping, Finger, ICQ, MIME...you name it) are already available =within that one program.= It's a totally integrated suite of functions. There's no need for 'another program to want to use the Internet.'
