HX-DOS extender v2.20 (Announce)

Today I accidentaly found that Japheth last month released a new version of his great HX-DOS extender.
I don't understand at all why Japheth haven't announced it. However, it seems to be finished and ready for downloading and using.

The only new thing is the "port trapping API" for the still experimental hdpmi32i variant - probably interesting for very few people.

Yes. it's always amazing, if you glance at the longish list of bugs, that some piece of software did actually work at all in the past :-D

	Hello Japheth! I've included your NE OS types as used by `patchne` in my `readexe` utility. If you use special PE subsystem values, I'll pick those up when I get around to PE support (it'll be the last format supported)

If I understood that project correctly, it's a ramdrive using memory of the graphics card. What feature is HX supposed to use here?
