	Yes,
	I'm using Xywrite 3+ in DosBox 0.35 in
	Suse Linux 8.2, but you could use
	Xdosemu or Dosemu.
	Dosbox is quick and scales the 25 x 80
	window fonts as you resize the window.

	You can open any DOS prorgram in any of
	the options.

	Fast, all the featurs are there, but
	remember the UNIX2DOS and DOS2UNIX
	programs if you dont have a program to
	swap between the [newline] and CRLF
	formats.
