I'm trying to help someone run Einstein Writer under QEMU. I set up
a virtual machine and installed FreeDos on it.
I found a demo of Einstein which is supposed to be a running version
of it.
When I start it up, I get a few English words and a lot of junk on
the screen. I assume I am missing installing Hebrew support in the
virtual video card.
I did a web search and found a wikipedia entry for codepage 862. I
tried to load it with the FreeDos command display con=(ega,862,1).
It loads, but I still get garbage.
Any ideas?
To answer my own question, I found a dos boot disk complete with the
necessary files and Einstein all on it. It was designed for a
different virtualization system, but it works with QEMU:

Alternatively is there a way to convert EinsteinWriter files to
something useable without Einstein itself?
Still looking for an answer.
Thanks, Geoff.
