"needs 25 lines" message

[Mikhail Ramendik]

Hello,

I am using dosemu 1.1.5.7.

When it is started in an xterm (actually rxvt) less than 25 lines high,
it says:

   Note that DOS needs 25 lines. You might want to enlarge your
   window before continuing.


   Now type ENTER to start DOSEMU or <Ctrl>C to cancel

And waits for me to press ENTER.

I have a DOS app as a part of a script. Therefore, I would like DOSEMU
to NOT wait for anything. "dosemu -quiet" or "dosemu --quiet" does not
help.

Is it possible to somehow make it skip waiting? (Apart from running it
in a bigger terminal, of course).

Sincerely yours, Mikhail Ramendik

echo -e "\n" | dosemu
Yet, I cannot resist asking WHY you need less than 25 lines :)
