This sounds like a good task for me to start. And I am most certainly willing. Would this be pulling together the compiled executables or will I have to compiled? I am not sure I am ready to do the compiling since I come from an environment of fancy compilers and no make files etc. But I will if that is what is needed. Test environment: Virtual environment like QEMU or similar? Or will I need to test it on my machine, I would prefer not to undo the work I have done in the last week or so getting this thing running. Pros rebuild the test environment via a script is faster script could could create logs and documentation of the newer files etc Virtual environment is vanilla little bland, no hardware surprises. Cons Virtual environment is vanilla little bland, no hardware surprises. Virtual environment can be slower/faster than the end user system. Benchmark testing would be a little off. Test Cases: Tests are there any test cases or anything like that? Its been a while and I could go through the help for each. Could use batch scripting to run the tests and redirect the output for review. Reporting issues and bugs, how and where? > probably modify a little the installer. Not a problem is there any installer building software that could be used for this? Put it all together, just put it in the same place directory wise that I do now correct? or shall I do a different structure. What files dos commands and systems files only or all executables? Comments suggestions please, and an official ok to do this :) Or is it more informal ~theMouse > There are a lot of highly skilled programes in this list, if you start > working on something, I am sure they will step in :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
