Still playing with that "Sherlock" game, and I have two more questions.

First, the speed ... on my home machine it is quite slow, and I remember
that I'm supposed to change "hogthreshold" in dosemu.conf. Well, this
install did not create such a file. I found files from older versions I
had apparently installed at some time (like 0.99), and copied the file
to .dosemu/conf, and set hogthreshold to 0 (the comment says that gives
dosemu the most  CPU) but it doesn't seem to help. Any other way of
goosing the program speed?

Second, sound. This program does not use a sound card, but running
native it gives various beeps on the
pc speaker - under dosemu it is silent. Can anything be done about that?

And now, another game - ISC (Interstellar Space Command).  It is
compiled Basic, and as such uses the old BASRUN.EXE. Under dosemu, it
can't seem to find it (it is right in the current directory), it says it
can't find a:basrun.exe, enter new drive. Using "d:" doesn't work, nor
does putting the file on a floppy and entering "a:". Any ideas??

(And lest any of the more serious users who are trying to get Novell
going ask, yes, my MAIN reason for wanting dosemu is a bunch of old
DOS games).
