  💩🚀 Windows 95 in Electron. Runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows.

If the problem to solve is piping an emacs buffer to a Windows 95 text mode binary and replace the buffer with the text output, the solution could be

1. Run Windows 95 in an emulator, maybe a webassembly one.

2. Generate the mouse clicks and keyboard events to run that program, probably in a full screen DOS window. It must be in the %PATH%

3. In the same way type in the buffer in the input of the program.

4. OCR the output.

5. Replace the content of the buffer.

I think it is feasible.

Step 1 is for example https://github.com/felixrieseberg/windows95

I wouldn't be surprised that steps 2 to 4 are already implemented in some form.

Step 5 should be trivial.
