if you use dosemu in terminal mode on the console or with
xterm -font vga, play with $_term_char_set = "ibm"
"latin" is the choice to use with other fonts.
... Or run xdosemu or suid-root dosemu on the console.

$_dosmem in dosemu.conf (ignoring the comment). Made me think.
960K is the maximum only if you use dosemu -dumb (-I 'video{none}' and
disable EMS - that way there is DOS memory all the way up to 0xf000
(where the BIOS is).
In a terminal 736 is possible.
In xdosemu 640 is the maximum.
Alternatively, use UMBs for those drivers (loadhigh etc).

Try it and you'll see.
