You have figured out why it is not good to use proprietary tools for open source projects.? But in the author's favor this was not intended to be open source until the software became so old that it was no longer a viable commercial product.
I read that there is a cheaper compiler around, like $50 or so.? You don't need the Windows version.
I think you would need the compiler for any serious use.? Say you wanted to add a feature like a home switch or electronic "touch off".?
If you need a really simple controller get GRBL?

Thanks.

In the US, those applications that run on MS-DOS are
considered a bit barbaric and lacking in sophistication.?
The one thing that Chris and I do differ on is that MS-DOS
is pretty much the original
