There has recently been released an unsupported Beta of the DIS dos
suite. Richard Clayton has released versions of all the DOS software
with Y2K fixes, released on christmas day. Unfortunately this is still
in btea, and is therefore unsupported and only announced to
demon.ip.support.pc, so it may not have any official status at all.

But if you want to try it:
