I have updated my daily FreeCom builds so there are now two sets.
The cmdxms* files are same as before, 186+ xms-swap nearly all features.
Added cmd8086* files, 8086+ kernel-swap some features disabled.

Jeremy, can you reduce the number of files which are downloadable?
I guess the non-XMS build is most universal, despite the high memory consumption then.

Thank you for the implemented features and renewed 8086 compatibility for XMSswap versions.

*fixstrs.exe is available, but where is critstrs.exe ?
*readme.cmd might be changed to readme.bat so also opens on Win9x?
 and it contains a typo: COMMMAND instead of COMMAND

you build 3 command.bin files
(8086, 80286+ full featured, 8086-disabled).
Might be an idea to store them in cmd%LANGUAGE%.HEAD.ZIP:
[language dependent] command.bin (+logfile?)
[language dependent] xmsswap.bin (+logfile?)
[language dependent] xms8086.bin (+logfile?)
[language dependent] criters.bin
[language dependent] %language%.err/lng
[independent       ] default.err/lng (has to be english?)
[independent       ] fixstrs.exe/critstrs.exe

Note: I switched it so the cmdxms builds have loadfix & loadhi, and these are disabled in the cmd8086 builds. WARNING: loadfix is completely untested by me! If you can test it, please let me know if it works correctly or not.

old HTMLHELP binary required it somehow.

I think this is everything I said I would do, so let me know if I forgot anything.

Only SYS remains. Is it safe to combine development version of SYS with a stable kernel? I don't think SYS and KERNEL depend on each other very much.
