I downloaded Pac-Gal and placed it in my dos games folder...
http://www.myabandonware.com/game/pac-gal-13

When I try to run it, I'm getting illegal commands. Is there something I'm forgetting to do?

Two things.
1. You're forgetting you need to unpack it.
2. You're forgetting DOS - and by extension also DOSBox - does not support long file names.

I shortened the filename of the .exe and it worked. Thanks!
