:the aim being to 'freeze' arcadeos & pass control over to the app... Also waiting for the app to finish & then return focus to arcadeos. Don't know how feasible it'll be or useful ;)

I haven't tried this yet, but it should work

Create a batch file for the windows emu (I'll call the emu winemu.exe here) containing the following line, and call the batch file from ArcadeOS:

start /w winemu.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

Breakdown of what each part does:

start - Windows command to (properly) launch a Windows app from DOS

/w - wait for app to terminate before continuing batch file (since there's nothing more in the batch file, it should return to ArcadeOS)

winemu.exe - the Windows emu you want to run

%1-%9 pass the command line options from ArcadeOS to the emu.
