I know - I really do know - that DOSBox is designed for games, not for application software. I'm reporting an application that causes DOSBox to crash, because the information may help the developers to avoid memory-related problems with other software, and I hope the developers might find it useful for testing.
The WordPerfect Shell 4.0 (a task switching application that lets you swap out one program and switch to another) locks up under DOSBox. The program is available for download here:

WordPerfect Shell 4 is the one that crashes. WordPerfect Shell 3 works perfectly.
Again, I really understand that DOSBox is for games. I am posting this only because I hope the developers might it useful.
