It turns out the notion of memory requirements (contained in file headers) is different for DOS and for the Wendin UNIX system. The fix is a small program provided in Wendin UNIX called exefix.exe. Thus, MicroSoft's linker as well as most other DOS programs will run under Wendin UNIX, the exceptions being programs which write directly to hardware and one or two others such as WordPerfect which get lost, and which Wendin is now in- vestigating.
