This is unfortunate. The most recent release should always be available from: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/dos/command/
I'm not able to run DOS programs where I'm at right now (work) so I can't run this to check version number: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.2/repos/base/command.zip If that's the correct new version (it should be the version from the latest FreeDOS 1.2 pre-release) then we can copy this into the ibiblio.../dos/command/ download area.
