It's possible,  but I don't have details of how you'd do it.  There used to
be a guy in the LINUX echo a couple of years back who was running the same
bink/max/squish setup that I'm using here,  under dosemu,  and in the same
distro,  but I haven't seen him around for a really long time and I never
did get to ask him the details of how he was doing it when he was still
around.  Never did get dosemu set up and doing anything either...
