aha.  ok, i understand.

i think it's more stable than wine.  it's an older project and isn't as
ambitious.

not sure.  check out www.dosemu.org.

contrary to their website, the stable version is something like .99 and the
developer's version went to 1.1.1.  last i checked, the info on the website
was a bit dated.

i had alot of success with dosemu.  like wine, you don't absolutely need MS
DOS to run dosemu; it comes with an unencumbered dos called freedos.
