Um,
I think anything that works in DOS in 800*600 must be talking to the
graphics chips direct...stretch mode off just puts the normal 25*80
characters into 400 lines deep instead of 480.
Using a smaller character size will just give you a smaller dos box of 25*80
characters.
An external monitor will work under DOS at 800*600 and (under windows and
linux) it will scroll the LCD to match the external screen.
Is this app graphical, does it use the mouse? If so, you may be get lucky...
