My regrets. What you want doesn't exist. It isn't just a problem translating
the assembly language (though that is bad enough - at the very least each 8088
instruction would translate to several 68000 instructions, and even this isn't
easy) but the MSDOS system calls which would have to be translated into
AmigaDOS system calls.

The MSDOS operating system environment just isn't anything like the AmigaDOS
operating system environment.
