Yeah I know you're not sure, you need to go back quite a bit, there is a big
archive of messages on my system from Linux guys over the years needing help
getting doors to work... Dosemu sure didn't sound like a "breeze" to many.

Since no 64-bit OS can natively run 16-bit DOS apps, whats been suggested in
the past is maybe the Sysop who really wants the Dos doors might be better off
having a 32-bit Windows VM or secondhand PC or whatever...  THAT is a breeze
versus any emulated Dos.
