Yes it was C, 890 lines of code (I just looked), quite a lot of which was in #ifdef's due to handling two different environments (normal DOS and the PopDOS popup program).
Embarrasingly enough, there are only 6 comments in the whole 890 lines, only 3 of which were not pointlessly saying what the next line of code did. Hey, I was young, there would be at least 8 comments if I did it now :p
As a background, PopDOS was a program a friend of mine wrote to allow you to pop up little applets (such as an editor, calculator, or tetris) when you were still in another program under MS-DOS (or PC-DOS or whatever). "Sidekick" was a better known commercial program that did similar things. This was back before Windows 3.0 hit the shelves, so mostly you only did one thing at a time on your computer. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time...
