Ooh thanks for that one mate!
Thought everything was still stuck at 1.8 like in FreeDOS 1.0, I'll 
update the package on my CD.

But yeah ment Mike's version. The existing DJGPP versions are rather 
huge (1.8 at 400KB, your linked zip at 800KB). That's not helping a "hey 
let's boot from floppy, configure internet access and install from 
downloaded/mounted ISO file"

I wonder if your Watcom package can be converted into a self-hosting 
bootable compiling platform. Gives me something to mess around with, 
trying to get that working.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
