Hello there!

I have read in the Wine.FAQ the following part:

> 12.  I'm a software developer who wants to use Unix to develop programs
>      rather than DOS, but I need to write DOS and MS Windows programs as

 [...]

Now my question: Is there an MS-DOOF emulator for FreeBSD? 
Where can I get it? (ftp-site or something else)
What does it need? (Space, Libraries, etc. )

I would be very very happy if anyone could send me
an email or post an article here. thanx!


Maverick.
