Are the DOS based tools for the stamps still being supported?

Hello from Gregg C Levine
One of my projects, involves connecting my Stamp 1, to the serial port
on this computer. And using the original stamp tool for managing it,
on another one. That one, isn't running Windows, I know the DOS Stamp
tool runs on it. I just need to know that the product is still being
supported.
Code to follow, also for my ideas regarding VEE, and the Stamp.

hasn't changed in ages. Most people don't have DOS machines anymore so we
created the serial adapter (that will work under the most horrendous conditions
offered up by modern laptop serial ports) and updated the compiler to make
programming the BS1 easier (like the memory map function that BS2 users have
always had).

In this context, since I have two DOS machines here, that laptop, and
an older Compaq Portable, I mean that if I have a question or two
regarding the program, somebody will be able to answer it. And yes I
agree with the ideas behind the adapter, and the Windows product. I'm
surprised, Jon, that you didn't comment on my congratulatory message
regarding getting everything to work that way.
In fact for the first series of tests the roles will probably be
reversed, the laptop will get the serial data tossed at it, and this
guy, running Windows, will be managing the stamp.
I've got a newer laptop on order, but he won't be hear for another six
to eight weeks they tell me.
And that's what I meant earlier.
