And his PATCH17X explains:

Arachne's built-in EPPPD wasn't loading and I was stuck trying to
work around it.

Joe's LSPPPCFG, etc. got Arachne working for me straight away!

I find I'm able to run Arachne "Direct to DOS" (ie full screen)
from DESQview/X where it will compliment Opera run from Win3.1 in
small X-Window (ie windowed) from DV/X.

Thanks,
