  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • emu2

    Simple x86 and DOS emulator for the Linux terminal.

  • Emu2 allows to run 8086 software in text mode too, such as Turbo Pascal: https://github.com/dmsc/emu2 But what I'd like would be to have a Sixel backend for the EGA/VGA modes. Then by just using an xterm, ever over OpenSSH, I could run old retro DOS games under that.

  • lotusdrv

    Lotus 1-2-3 R4D Display Driver for DOSEMU

  • Thanks! I still use 123 basically daily, It's really grown on me and I can use it very efficiently.

    I wrote a display driver to fix a few quirks when using it in a modern terminal (https://github.com/taviso/lotusdrv), but once that was working I don't really have any complaints, it really works beautifully.

  • InfluxDB
