Yes I made a .dexe file. But it crashes on exit, which seems to result in
the session stuff not being saved (I'm not even sure how it's meant to
save files, perhaps within the dexe file).

No idea how it is supposed to work under DosEMU, but your lesson result should be updated as you do the lesson - in other words, when you get a screen at the end of a session saying you have so many words in various lessons, that reflects the updated state of your lesson file, which was rewritten during the lesson. When you exit the program, there is a DOS file close. The lesson file will be the username you typed at the start of the session to create the lesson, plus the letter L dot FL1, and there should be a corresponding human-readable ASCII log file using the letter H.

As far as I recall, these files are rewritten every lesson, so there should be no question that they should be updated. But don't type the wrong user name or work in the wrong directory %^).
