My brush with emx has to do with two dos programs, emtex and gppari both of which use emx to run under dos.
I asked a question about gp/pari on this list and got excellent advice on how to avoid problems with the package emmx202.zip which contains the latest emm386 and himem. The recent questions on the list though had me look a bit further and I see that there is an update to emxrt.zip available from sourceforge http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=138015 Haven't tried it yet under dos but perhaps it will play better with emmx202.zip. emtex which is the dos version of TeX also uses emx. I have not used it extensively but it seems to work ok on small documents. Also there is a dvi viewer which works under dos. I want also to mention that I have had problems with ghostscript under dos in that I have not been able to figure out how to get it to display documents at a readable size, usually the text is too small to read on my monitor. Anyway ignorance is bliss so I dont use it. Instead I found acrobat reader for dos and it actually works fairly well with pdf documents. . ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
