[Blindapple] installing lotus 123

[Josh K]

maybe the bns emulator needs updating? too bad I'm not a developer I 
would make an accent emulator or dec talk emulator instead.

I think it was something with it’s BNS support not working all the way, and all the other synthesizers I have are totally obscure Spanish old serial synths that only work with a Spanish screenreader, which I have also tried in DOSbox. They work, except the BNS version doesn’t like the emulator because it doesn’t output linebreaks by itself. With my real Braille ’n Speak 2000 in PCMaster mode it works, because of the interactive timeout, but not with the BNS emulator.
