Hello all :)
I'm trying to get a multi-user dos program to run on a linux box, to be
accessable vi win NT and 95 machines.
I have dosemu working, and everything seems fine on the console. The
programs work via telnet on my NT machine but the font is messed up.
The problems that I have had are the following...
1. Performance problems...
When running dos progs, each one constantly chews up the processor.
Even when the dos program seems to be in a idle state. I know that dos
programs *choke* weren't written for multi user systems so I was
wondering if anyone has a quick solution?
Is there some way that I can get the dos program to stop using up as
much processor when there is no user interaction? I noticed when dosemu
drops to a prompt the cpu usage drop right down again.
This would not be the best solution, because the user could be doing a
database search or some other 'required' cpu intensive task.
Anyone have any ideas?
2. Lack of the vga font for windows... I want to be able to use the
dos font, that I use on the linux console, in the windows telnet program
I have(telnet win32 http://www.musc.edu/~brannanp/telnet/).
Is there somewhere I can get the font for windows? Or a way to convert
the font?
Do you think that this is the reason for the different font?
3. A keymap for a pc. Anyone use the same telnet program?
Thanks in advance for any help.
--Rene.
