Peter:

When we get you up later today, you'll find you have something called
dosemu available for this.

And, yes, it's possible to use dosemu to run WordPerfect 5.1 with asap or
vocal-eyes. But, I'm not up to speed on the configuring of this. I do have
the messages on the subject archived--because I'm supposed to cull them
into a single HOWTO document for the speakup web page.
