There are other games like Yankee Trader that wont run under dosemu and,

YT does work with dosemu in situations where you are running a dos bbs and the bbs is running in the same dosemu session.

Ok, there's the odd exception, but I would say the majority of Synchronet sysops are not running YT on a DOS version of Synchronet in dosemu :)

As we are talking specifically about Synchronet, I offer this only as an aside.

Noted.

I would agree, although there was one fellow trying to get the last version
of DOS Synchronet running who was posting about it not too long ago. But, yeah, he is probably in the minority. :D

Probably referring to Hobo; he was running v2.30 on a Wyse thin-client computer. Was a regular on IRC and then he wasn't... Not sure why.

he was a good guy. and being a truck driver is a hard essential profession that gives you little or no time to do things for your hobbies and your family.
