There was a lot of effort put into MBSE's DOS abilities.  It works quite well 
though the Git version of DOSemu requires some additional work that isn't in 
the MBSE manual (I need to update that some day).

Here's the uname -a output off of the BBS box:

Linux bbs 4.4.157 #2 SMP Fri Sep 21 00:36:59 CDT 2018 x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) 
CPU           X3430  @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

(That's Slackware 64 14.2 stable.)

FreeDOS is still around, yes, but I used PC-DOS 2000 because my friend, fellow 
MBSE sysop and developer Andrew Leary is using that so I just copied his 
setup.

Later,
Sean
