Yeah, I had fun with it last night..

Found this guy's training video's which made it easy and fun

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lfWzPxOJQ8&list=WLEE3A785FB84A29DA

Started to add his youtube RSS feed to KAAW until I noticed some of his

other videos might not be suitable for all ages.

Oh well, so far, it's been a good training video series, and very similar to

foxbase of all things.

Google apparently also has some training videos that I hope to watch next

week.

I chose the first guys videos because they were bite sized whereas googles

are nearly a hour each

Raspherry Pi runs a compact Linux. You should be able to use DOSEmu after

installing it manually via apt-get.

Just google "raspherry pi dosemu"! This search result came from Linux

You could also compile DOSEmu (anything actually) from source codes.

I barely remembered that it got a command prompt like Foxpro's Command

Window. :)
