I found this today:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks like you
need to bind the executable with their stub.

How much effort would be required to get it to
do the same thing as HX and not require any
change to the executable you are trying to run?

I haven't yet confirmed whether the Phar Lap
TNT Dos Extender is the same as HX.

Note that the only win32 executables I care about
are ones that were built with PDPCLIB - so normally
only using msvcrt.dll, but sometimes kernel32.dll too.

And note that I have my own msvcrt.dll.

And note that HX has some bugs that affect me, so I'm
looking for other options.

This would be for running under Freedos, not PDOS.

Thanks. Paul.
