DOS also stopped providing LINK.EXE around that time, too. Presumably all the development tools were better found elsewhere (bundled with MS C or whatever). I didn't think EXE2BIN was useful at all without some kind of assembler or compiler, but people here seemed to disagree with me. (This particular one comes from OpenWatcom 1.5 anyways, so ....) > Which memory manager offers the most compatibility? FDXMS or HIMEMX? Presumably HIMEMX. Not sure that FDXMS has been as widely tested (although nothing is anymore, sigh). I just wonder which version is Jerome including (3.32? 3.34?). Anyone have a strong preference either way? (I'd obviously suggest 3.34, but again, I don't know how widely tested it's been. Just having that 386 patch is good but not necessarily good enough to prefer it exclusively.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
