        grabbed it, tried it. it's interesting.
        seems to run rather slow, tho. i suppose it's more of an
emulator/interpreter of some sort, that sits on top of the DOS kernel.
        how do you change drives in it, anyway? It looks like it recognizes
other drive letters; but I can't change to them. (would be nice if it would
handle other drive letters better than the DOS lettered-drive monstrosity...)
