The starting of DOS applications could be implemented by starting DOSBox 
from within the CreateProcess call like NTVDM would be started. Other 
more difficual topics are accessing the available drives and perhaps 
interaction of the started application with the surrounding system 
(desktop, IPC, etc.) which is especially important for Windows 3.x 
applications.
