I though I knew quite a bit about DOS and DJGPP. DJGPP programs for DOS need DPMI right? To get DPMI you need to run the program in Windows (ugh!) or load a DPMI server in DOS, ie CWSDPMI or something. However I find that loading EMM386.EXE in the CONFIG.SYS seems to be enough to get these programs working? Is this correct, does EMM386 provide DPMI? Long live DOS!
