OK 
There is a bug with the version 1.4.0+svn 1999

I am using dosemu for my professional activity and I can understand you
like so much dos.
 Dos is really fantastic and there is so many interesting soft often
free.
I have used arachne  (a browser running under dos) without any problem
during 6 or 7 years.

Now I like so much linux (ubuntu or puppy linux.......

With dosemu I have the same problem that you.

For the moment  you can try to install the stable version of dosemu
(debian). 

You will have to create the file 90-dosemu.conf.
And perhaps you could use Wordperfect.
Sincerely
Patrice Lemonnier
