   16-Bit Windows Program

   I have a couple of 16-bit DOS programs that I still occasionally use.   
   For those I keep a virtual XP going on VBox.   
      
   Is there any way that I can continue to use them on Linux and ditch XP?   
      
   One of them calls a Windows program to permit proportionaly spaced typefaces.
