It's only experimental to see what it does anyway, so if it runs like crap I

on the switches though, and /3 is enhanced mode on 386's and up.

It doesn't look to see what processor
you're running then? I've never
thought to try it on an XT with a bunch of EMS/XMS memory. Thanks for
creating yet another tinkering project that I'll be dying to get at.
You'll be sorry. There is a reason they dropped real-mode support, you
know. In any case, it will try to detect the CPU and use the run-time for
that CPU, but there is a way to force it to run as if it were on a
lower-class CPU.
I'm not positive, and I don't have an easy way to check, but I think it
is:
win/s -- standard (i.e., 286) mode
win/r -- real mode
