Well, complain to Suse then ;) Seriously, "-input" and "-quiet" are more
convenience options, but not strictly necessary.
In dosemu-1.0.2.1 and later, -quiet tells dosemu to shut up with the usual
message before starting, and -input is a shorthand for -I {keystroke ...

The DOS in DOSEMU simply executes autoexec.bat as usual. And, if you put a
unix -e
command in there it will execute whatever you use using -E.

autoexec.bat is always executed. However inside autoexec.bat you can play
with "unix -e" and "unix -s" and environment variables to execute other
batch files from within autoexec.bat.
