I need help in opening dosemu

I need help in opening dosemu

[John A.White, Jr.]

I wonder if you could help.

I am new to Linux.  I recently purchased SuSE Linux and am having trouble 
starting dosemu.  It shows in the start menu, but when I click on it it 
quickly shows the Console and the beginnings of the dos window and then 
closes.  So I can't  get to the dos window.  I do not know what to type on 
the command line to go there directly, not using the SuSE window.

It worked fine until I loaded Wordstar 5.5 and changed config.sys from 
lines=20 to lines=30.  Now however changing that back does not seem to work 
and some of the other programs seem to do the same thing (open Konsole and 
then quickly close).  However, the Konsole button on the SuSE window seems to 
work fine.

lmao, windows does it if you open a dos program in windows and it only displays one line, the solution? open in a konsole, type dosemu in a open one.

Thanks. Regards, Dean McEwan. OpenModemTalk creator.
