Alas, yet another poor soul trying to run demacs under DOS.  Actually
I am trying to run demacs in a DOS shell(4DOS) under windows.

Two problems.


1. In a DOS shell, under windows, I get the error...

CPU must be in REAL mode (not V86 mode) to run this program.

... Is there a fix for this?

2. In DOS when I run demacs, I have NO delete key.  Neither the backspace
nor the delete key works.  How do I get the backspace key to delete 
characters?

Thanks,
