Watch out on this one:  The description on msdos.announce and on the
Web page say, ``2 MB of extended memory'' required. NOT SO - when
you run the program it will greet you with,

        2 MB of EXPANDED memory required to run

Expanded memory is an old specification, hardly used by the last
decade of dos programs. If you provide EMS, you actually lose XMS and
UMB memory for the trouble -- in this case for the ability to run
this one program.

I wrote the author and asked him to rewrite the program to really use
extended memory.
