Re: Remote control of Dosemu

["Alain M." <alainm@pobox.com>]

Hi,

Dosemu has a "dumb" mode which uses Linux's stdin and stdout. It will 
probably work with scrict command line DOS programs, most probably not 
with TUI. This can probably be used with screen and easely with ssh and 
also with scripts.

I use dosemu remotely trough ssh. You just need to run dosemu in char 
mode and install the fonts you need in the client machine.

BUT, you did not say if your application is command line, TUI or graphic...

Alain
PS: I am redirecting this to the dosemu list
