As Tom has forgotten that this got announced on FreeDOS devel:

Hello all,

I thought some of you might enjoy this (others may really dislike it).
Link is to a (posted to YouTube) about 2 minute video of (version
2043+patches) FreeDOS kernel running Windows 3.1 in Enhanced and
Standard mode.  I haven't pushed the changes to the public GitHub
repository yet as there are still some rough edges to fix (all the
changes are technically there, just in the old unstable branch).  I
will make a test version (with source) available later this week along
with steps to run Windows.  [I need to go to sleep now.]

(I apologize for anyone that can't view the video - it is just FreeDOS
kernel booting in VirtualBox, me running a bunch of ver /r commands
and WIN along with a dos prompt, and showing both enhanced and
standard mode.)

For the technical aspect - the changes are minimal to the kernel,
added support for a few int 2F function calls that were never merged
in was about all it took.  All significant changes behind a
WIN31SUPPORT #ifdef so doesn't need to be compiled in if unwanted.

Enjoy,
Jeremy
