You can use vmware2 (version 3 works only for FreeBSD 5.x) to run a vertual machine. This way you could run your old programs.
i've coincidentally found that:
Xdos is available at 1. sunsite.unc.edu /pub/Linux/Incoming (will probably be moved to
/pub/Linux/ALPHA/dosemu )
source: http://groups.google.de/groups?q=xdos&hl=de&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF- 8&newwindow=1&selm=2ji219%24qkv%40klaava.Helsinki.FI&rnum=1
I believe xdos/dosemu requires an actual DOS partition on the machine (someone please let me know if that's incorrect). So again, the point would be, if you are going to install DOS, why not just run WordPerfect from it?
[Sound of palm contacting forehead, remind self once again to be more careful in future.]
Sorry, xdos/dosemu uses DOS installed to a disk image that lives in a directory, by default /usr/local/lib/dosemu.
