-**NOTE:** Starting with dosemu2 build 2.0~pre9-7811-4373124b9+202301020131, dosemu2 seems to require the $_xms and $_ems settings to be more than 1024 in order to run.  I (Nightfox) tried "$_xms = (8192)" and "$_ems = (2048)", and newer builds of dosemu2 would run.  Additionally, for TradeWars 2002, it also requires the setting SHELL_LOADHIGH_DEFAULT=0 (otherwise, when running TradeWars 2002, dosemu2 was complaining that it could not initialize the fossil driver and would exit). \\+**NOTE:** Starting with dosemu2 build 2.0~pre9-7811-4373124b9+202301020131, dosemu2 seems to require the $_xms and $_ems settings to be more than 1024 in order to run.  I (Nightfox) tried "$_xms = (8192)" and "$_ems = (2048)", and newer builds of dosemu2 would run.  Additionally, for TradeWars 2002, it also requires the setting SHELL_LOADHIGH_DEFAULT=0 (otherwise, when running TradeWars 2002, dosemu2 was complaining that it could not initialize the fossil driver and would exit).
