- AshamedCaptain 4y agoExcept that writing a windowed DOS terminal emulator involves writing an entire VGA card emulator, likely a VGA BIOS, hooking a bunch of DOS routines.... probably a DOS extender too.
- gattilorenz 4y agoSure, but DOS4GW doesn’t do anything of that except the extender part
- mrlonglong 4y agoYou still need a DOS extender to do any of those magic things. Drop into unreal mode, or into protected mode and load the interrupt tables.
