 ml> i believe that is/was RLFOSSIL...
	I figured that out last night (duh!) but it does not work
quite like bnu.sys or bnu.com. I  would like to find a TSR or a device
driver type system. Now from reading the manual on how it works.  do I
set it up like this, its only an example
rlfossil parameters.... c:\nerf.bat
whereas c:\nerf.bat is the actual batch file that runs maximus and the
handling of external doors. Its a carry over from when I ran opus
1.73a (I would still have used opus if it was y2k compliant, which it
is NOT!)
	Since we are talking a batch file and not a .exe or .com.
would I need to fire it up like so:
rlfossil parameters c:\command -c c:\nerf.bat

	What I would rather do is invoke it like I do bnu.sys in my
config.sys file or at the very least like bnu.com in my autoexec.bat
file.
	What other fossils  or com port emulators that are Msdos
native are out there? I am talking 16 bit here, Not  Windows 9x or
later.
	I have   checked my nightly CVS compiles of the Linux maximus
and it can't find two entries which I am going to ask about in muffin.
If they fix those mites, I might be able to run maximus on linux after
all.
