Re: [Freedos-user] Small install onto 64 meg flash disk?

From: Dale E Sterner <sunbeam...@juno.com> Sounds like the IDE flash drive is removable. If it is then you could find another IDE PC an install FREEDOS on it and then plug it back to your machine. DOS will boot on a wide range of old machines. You can install on one then carry it over to a

Re: [Freedos-user] Some driver updates

You might list dos payfor software, a link to it, price , and user rating. If people get paid there might be more activity in some types of sofware. I have a dos version of PIXEL, looks just like windows. My copy is crippled but I'd be happy to buy a full version if it every exists. Put some money

Re: [Freedos-user] Some driver updates

I don't believe that freedos should be restricted to only open software but should promote anything that improves dos, like QV which is closed but great dos software. DOS is on the edge of extinction and needs all the help it can get. Owner of closed softwre could be asked to include the source in

American taxes are very complex but at least we can still use paper. My tax return is 8 double sided pages. I'd sink if I didn't have QPRO to do all the math. America loves to copy Japanese and European ways, even when they're stupid. I hope this is one idea they take a pass on. cheers DS On

[Freedos-user] source codes

If you are looking for good dos source code; you might contact the guy who wrote dos PV (picture view) He seems to have lost interest in it. He might give you the source for someone else to continue. He did a nice job on it but still needs improvements. cheers DS On Sun, 1 Jul 2018 09:53:14

I have never had a problem with https with SSL 3. Apache's new server to prevent data breeches, I believe is the source. Everybody wants to use it. They don't want to be an Equifax. Personalily I think data breeches are linked to employees who are careless or corrupt. cheers DS On Thu, 26 Oct
