Unfortunately, there's another issue - the program requires activation which we can no longer do. It calls /once/brand to serialize the installation, so perhaps some inspiration from OS/2 Museum can be applied here? http://www.os2museum.com/wp/tales-from-the-xenix-crypt/

Excellent!

Oh I plan to have lots of fun with this! I've seen this kind of thing before.

Yup: https://lisalist2.com/lisalist1/2496.html (warning, it's full of Rick and Morty memes)

I'm not sure if this will work the same or not, but I plan to use the same approach. But basically there, I went around brand and modified the multiplan executable itself after seeing how brand works. though yes, I started with brand.

However, this is also an excuse for me to try to get Xenix going on LisaEm as well - the issue seems to be that it doesn't like my profile emulation, so I'm going to try to either placate Xenix or if I can disassemble enough of the driver, to use High Level Emulation to get around it.

I feel honored to have contributed to LisaEm in a roundabout way :P
