Thanks very much Mike. The echo statement worked and I have logged it
into my dosemu.nfo file. It's good information.
echo %DOSEMU_VERSION% reported 1.3.3.0 but that doesn't square with the
fact that I used apt-get to load 1.2.2.8.
Any idea which file the version number comes from?
You may have two dosemu's (and dosemu.bin's) installed, one, 1.2.2-8,
in /usr/bin and the other one, 1.3.3, in /usr/local/bin, and
/usr/local/bin comes first in your $PATH.

Bart you are absolutely right - there were two dosemu.bin's.
I've moved the files in /usr/local/bin to /usr/local/bin/old because
they wouldn't start dosemu.
The grep 1.2 /usr/bin/dosemu.bin produces several hits of visible 1.2 in
the text portions (I realize . matches any character)
and grep 1.3 produces no hits.
So I indeed have 1.2.2.8 which is what apt-get reported.
Whenever 1.4 comes out in a deb file I'll try that but for now I'm
pretty happy.
I regularly run a number of DOS programs - Supercalc (spreadsheet),
Wordstar and Q&A. I especially use a lot of SC because my fingers know
what to do without thought!
Thanks toboth of you for helping.
