1.99k wouldn't run under OS/2 Warp, but 1.99l does. At first, many
of the demos and most of the additional color demos failed on me
despite configuring the program object as directed. I eventually
noticed that they were all complaining about memory before they died,
some only issuing a quick "Program terminated by SIGSEGV" before
executor itself exited. Increasing application memory using
-applzone 8192 got them running. Reducing bits per pixel with
-bpp 4 or -bpp 1 would do it, too, but I like the color suppport.
I don't know if you have to do this under "real" MSDOS, I've only
run it under OS/2.
I'm a total Mac neophyte, though. Now that it's running, I can't
figure out what I'm supposed to do in Lemmings or how I'm supposed
to do it.
