I only partially agree with you. It seems particularly foolhardy to import a
modern linux shell environment into a 16 bit windows environment.

Anyway your advice is spot on. This works:

unset LS_COLORS
wine Bcs.exe

This actually gets past the "Insufficient space" error. Obviously LS_COLORS is a
big environement variable.

But the now working program has some kind of PATH error and cannot find its data
files, as I explained above.

I wonder if there would be a way to find out what DOS environment variables
there are in windows 3.11? 

I have currently put the program in C:\bcs\ because the manual says that is
where it normally is. I have tried other places as well as "Bcs" etc.

I may go and travel to find a windows box and see what the default file
locations are for this program, and imitate on this fake_windows dir.

Thanks for all your help. I'm closer than I have been for a few years.
