I agree that an updater should also be able to pull DOS software from other sites. In several common Linux distros, this is called a "repository". I would also like to see the "repository" concept get added to FDUPDATE, and I think the way it's been written it could support that later. But I also think the important thing now is to get FDUPDATE working to update FreeDOS packages, but in a way that allows us to support third-party repositories as well. -jh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
