Well, basically, it's that. I have a DOS EXE file and I would like to disassemble it to Flat Assembler format source code. If I can do it directly in one go, that's great. If I need to first disassemble it to, say, TASM, and then convert that to Flat Assembler, as long as it works, it's OK too. But I would like the process to not require Windows, since I'm a Linux user. If no other choice, I'll have to install Wine to do it once and then I have my source and won't need it again, but it'd be great to not need to do that.

What do you guys recommend for the disassembly?
Thanks

The closest output format from some of the most popular disassemblers, is probably NASM.

Then with a bit of scripting magic you could do post-processing of the NASM source.
