    From what I recall of the time period, QEMM from Quarderdeck was the most well-regarded software for this—or at least the most popular:

    That along with their DESQview (popular for running multi-line BBSes, at least until OS/2 came along which was an actual multitasking OS on PCs that could run DOS apps):

    I wonder if Symantec would ever be willing to release the source code to those.

    That's too bad. Sort of guaranteed not to be used now.
