dosemu2 is perfect for old software like this, it's not just an emulator but has a mode that translates VGA text mode operations into terminal operations so becames almost like a native application in your terminal
I did this with WordPerfect for DOS thanks to a guide posted here years ago https://blog.cmpxchg8b.com/2020/09/finding-console-word-processor.html https://blog.cmpxchg8b.com/2020/09/finding-console-word-proc...
- anthk 5y agoEmu2 allows to run 8086 software in text mode too, such as Turbo Pascal: https://github.com/dmsc/emu2 https://github.com/dmsc/emu2 But what I'd like would be to have a Sixel backend for the EGA/VGA modes. Then by just using an xterm, ever over OpenSSH, I could run old retro DOS games under that.
