I've never tried IBM-DOS. In terms of freedos, I can't get WordPerfect Shell
3.1 to work with two TSRs I use: ZipKey and DPPrint. The former allows me
to insert City, State, Zip into a database by just typing in the Zip. The
latter allows me to certain printing things with DataPerfect relational
database applications. These work fine with MS-DOS 6.22 under dosemu,
better under dosemu 1.2.1 than either 1.2.2 or 1.3.2.
