DOS ain't dead

Rod's Himemx ( and Jack's Xmgr ) work with multiple blocks (Developers)

I tested the modified himemx and jack's xmgr with the "hole"-emulator - both work as "advertised". More exactly: both are able to use at least 2 free extended memory blocks.

I also tried MS Himem.sys ( from Win98SE ). Result: it somehow manages to circumvent the emulator - although I did set DOS=NOAUTO in config.sys!!
