Well... I have downloaded executor 1.99h for DOS and Linux..
some questions:
- I tried to run progs from exuser.hfv disk (from ftp.cs.unm.edu)..
There is some app (don't remember its name) which needs FPU. It
seems FPU is not implemented in Executor or whatever. App tells
me that i have not FPU (but in Executor.ps doc. is wrote the FPU
is emulated!).. What to do ? should I set some command-line
switch ? - tried on Exec/DOS.
- I like non-private color map in Exec/Linux but it seems to be
a bit slow (for example in Lemmings Demo). I would like to know
if there is any possibility to run Exec/Linux in old private color
map mode (it was fast enough for me).
- I would like to use *.hfv files from DOS under Exec/Linux. Is
there any possibility ? Or how to quickly convert hfv files in
ExecutorVolume under Linux ?
Thanx Roman Dolejsi

yes, it is slow. i hope to speed it up, although that isn't very high
on my priority list at the moment.
you can either use the option `-privatecmap' or set the X resource
`Executor.privateColormap' to `True'.
