Besides, HIMEMX, you could also use XMGR (which I use these days) or presumably even FDXMS. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/xms/ > I didn't find GS386, but found WDOSX. What could you say about it? WDOSX isn't bad but doesn't play well with CWSDPMI and has other minor issues. Overall it works okay, but no extender is perfect (that's why we have so many!). I think Causeway is probably a safer bet. > I see. D3X seems to be dead after 2004 and there is WDOSX. D3X seems to somewhat play nicer than WDOSX, but yeah, the author is AWOL (plus it's non-commercial only, which is not free/libre, even with sources). I'm not really sure how to contact him, I'd like him to change the license so that it can be widely mirrored. He also did the DJELF hack, which is mirrored by DJ, but nobody bothers to use that. So maybe it's a lost cause anyways. :-/ > The reason why I've choosen DOS32/A that I hasn't a big choice: DOS/4G, > Causeway(?), PMODE/W and DOS32/A. How to proper integrate WDOSX into OW? Is > it only a post-install "stub-it"? Well, I'm sure you can make it where you can do it automatically by extracting the Watcom/LE stub and putting something in your *.LNK scripts. But yeah, it's just easier (to me) to just use "STUBIT xyz.exe" manually later. > BTW, I've tried to build D3XW stub with linux NASM and link it by WCL386: > > wcl386 -ldos -fe=d3xw.exe d3xw.obj > > And get "D3X: error 0x8: unable to spawn image".

I just use the stock build. It might be some minor bug, dunno, probably safer to use something else. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable security intelligence.
