Hi Flamengo, welcome :-) Can you give more details about the Wing game crash?
As we already have some EMACS and EMACS has a thing with LISP, maybe we already have some LISP hidden in EMACS? I vaguely remember some thread topics exist in DOS forums, but somebody else would have to provide links for you :-) Regarding UEFI: You normally load a CSM to provide BIOS interrupts which not only DOS itself but also DOS apps need. There are some open source CSM, probably with a somewhat limited hardware support, so you could learn how this works (probably complex) and see whether you can set your hardware to UEFI-only boot, use a Linux or similar boot loader to load an open source CSM and then load a standard DOS and see whether it actually works... Regarding UEFI in a different sense: It would be cool to have GPT support in our kernel. At the moment, only MBR is supported, which limits DOS to 2 Terabyte disk size. Regarding the web frameworks and high and low languages etc. those can get quite complex even to just port, so I am cautious to say anything about those suggestions. > ... suggest is including an Amiga emulator... MAME too? Do you know any for DOS, or any which seem port-friendly? I guess more emulators at least on ibiblio would not hurt, but is there an open source Amiga "BIOS" to use with such an emulator, for example? To avoid license troubles here. Same for Genesis, SMS, MEKA. > -- An even crazier idea: Porting WINE to DOS That would be called either HX RT (run simple Windows apps in DOS) or REACTOS (open source Windows clone, shares some code with Wine for obvious reasons). There even is some DOS port of DOSBOX which could be useful if the port has sound drivers for modern hardware and the DOS inside DOSBOX can be used for games which expect a soundblaster, simulated by it. No comment on the installer, others know it better than me.
