Hello all!

Does anyone have any experience spawning a Pharlap286 application from
within a DJGPP app?

The only way I can get it to work is to load the following statement in the
config.sys:

Device=c:\emm386.exe RAM NOEMS

I believe this is because the Pharlap app cannot talk to the CWSDPMI host,
but I don't know for sure.  (Using EMM386 forces the memory allocations to
go through EMM386, not through the DPMI host, I think...) 

This is highly undesirable, and I would love a way around it.  

Thanks!
