If you sent an off-list email in reply to a FreeDOS email list message, I may have missed it because the Subject would have appeared as a list message. (That's one reason I don't like off-list emails.) In FreeDOS help there are a lot of outdated commands.

You can look through the Books page and reuse or remix (or edit it whatever) as part of the help. Jim
