Sorry, can't be targeted... I've never been able to run any of the apps I've wanted to under wine :-( so here are some generic suggestions you may or may not have considered: - A small virtual machine of 3.1 or 95? Qemu may even suffice. DOS + 3.1 should fit into 100MB easy. For that matter, a virtual machine of 98 or XP can be a very good resource to have handy at all times (on a USB stick, for example,) and may be easier to obtain legally. - DOSBox may be an option, but I have no idea how much 3.1 support it has under Linux (since I've never used DOSBox at all...) -Mark C. P.S. It's situations like this that remind me why I love open source / open formats. _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
