Free DOS Extenders
Dos32 DOS Extender
This is a 32 bit DOS extender for use with assembly language files. It comes with a debugger and linker. This is an old 1995 version of the extender. If I'm not wrong, the new versions are commercial programs, and are no longer downloadable from the Internet. However, the documentation for this version suggests that you can distribute applications linked with the extender freely without payment of royalties.
PMODE/W
PMODE/W is a DOS extender that you can use with that Watcom C/C++ compiler. It is designed to be a drop-in replacement for DOS4GW.EXE. Note that if you are using OpenWatcom, you do not have to download this. PMODE/W is already packaged with the OpenWatcom compiler
