Maybe http://takeda-toshiya.my.coocan.jp/msdos/ is already enough on
Windows 10 x64?
If you just want to run a 16-bit DOS application in Windows then it
might just run if you are using Windows 10 32-bit. Windows will ask
you to enable a program called NTVDM to enable that.
I recently discovered NTVDMx64 which is a port of Microsofts NTVDM. It
got my 16-bit DOS application to run just fine IN Windows 10 64-bit...
no need for DOS or any emulators.

I'll give this one a look, it may do what I want.
Thanks for the pointer.
I've had zero luck getting dos apps to work on win10, 32 for 64-bit,
every time I try to run them, that window just freezes, and I'm told
this version of windows doesn't support 16-bit apps. Even under win8.1 I
had similar results. Is this something you'd need to activate with the
compatibility wizard or something?
That's really the only reason I was wondering if wsl linux running
dosemu would do the trick. :)
