Hello all
I have an old xbase/clipper program that I need to run on Linux. Tried it some time ago on Dosemu on CentOS. Need to run it on Fedora now as the new hardware does not load CentOS.
Found that Dosemu is missing from Fedora 15 and Dosbox is there instead. However, it clearly states that printing is not a priority for it and I need to print out to a Dot-Matrix printer.
Can someone advise why Dosemu has been dropped? And strangely I cannot find any repo that I can enable while maintaining fedora with protectbase yum plugin....google searches yield rpm search engines with downloadable rpms but I can't seem to get to a repo.
Can someone please advise? Graphics & sound are not an issue for me and the use case is accounting.
With best regards.
Sanjay.
You could always try a virtual machine with freedos, that is how I play all my old dos games under linux these days.
