Re: Program request.



I took a quick look at the Dosemu website. It hasn't been updated since 2012. I didn't look at the source so I don't know how much effort it would take to make a Debian package.

There is a Debian package that might already do what you are looking for: DOSBox-X (https://dosbox-x.com/).

Hope this helps.

Hi. Would it be possible to get dosemu added to Debian? A lot of visually impaired people myself included still use dos for various programs and to play the old text based games. Dosemu use to work with Speakup when I tried it several years ago and made an easy way to get dos support in Linux. I think it was produced by freedos if I remember correctly so as far as I know it's a free program. Anyway, just thought I would ask about getting it included. I'm not a programmer so I don't know how much work this would take. Thanks and have a great day.
