You just piqued my interest!

A native DOS emulator, eh? I wonder the speed and compatibility. Are you using js-dos? I'd be curious to see if it's possible to use this as a standalone module for other BBSes, since DOS doors are a common pain point.

dosemu2 is good but not perfect - some games are still wonky. Lore is one. LORD 2 is another. dosemu2 also seems to get stuck running nightly maintenance at times and I have to manually un-stuck it.

I wonder...how capable is js-dos or whatever it is you're using? There are some old DOS BBS packages that would be cool to run in something like this. Think iniquity or OBV/2 or even something like MajorBBS or TBBS.

Sorry for the off topic post :P
