- I'm currently writting a Dos emulator (like softpc) to add to GNU.. I currently have a lot of work to do
-
- I've used SoftPC and wasn't impressed.
-
- I do know a good optimizing compiler will be able to optimize the hell out of the emulator (it should be able to stick everything inline...)
-
- VP/IX on a sun386i I found rather good...there's an emulator for Linux and I may look into what it takes to get an emulator going on 386BSD...
