Hi:

I don't know your exact problem, but I think ET 2.20 can be run under
DOS 5.0; my roommate has ET2.20 running under DOS5.0, and never complains
about anything.

BTW, ET3.0 is coming out.  ETen company annouces that it will not occupy
any memory within 640K.  The most important feature is that it loads
almost all to extended memory and others are faster scrolling, optional
printer driver, a set-up on-line menu help.  For card-versions, they
support smooth fonts as large as 128*128.
