I don't know what you are ultimately trying to accomplish, but we start up
dosemu at boot time with particular program running like this:

  screen -T xterm -c /usr/magic/geryon/dos.screen

and dos.screen is a shell script which looks like this:

  screen /usr/bin/dos
  detach

We can then attach to this dos session any time from anywhere. ...the dos
startup has an autoexec.bat that starts up a program that needs to run
forever, and I can look at it from home.
