Hi Jerome,
hi to all,
I will wait some days to see if there are other questions or proposals referring to NewDOS and then send André Olejko a list with everything at one time in german. I am not sure if he wants a copy of his website, but I will ask him.
One of my questions will be if the source code of asm86 can/will be published.
Some additional informations:
I personally think that André Olejko did a great job, one single man created "a half OS"! 👍👏
Please no negative comments about this. Thx.
He speaks less English, for this reason it is made in german only. And then he stopped programming and forgot a lot about the programming languages etc.
NewDOS supports FAT 16 only, so if someone plans to work with it, please keep this in mind.
I got the information, that some parts for compiling at once are missing and have to be rebuild, but it seems to be possible to fix this. Please keep in mind that everything is older than 20 years and things can be lost.
I also got the information that translating NewDOS to english should be doable then.

Willi

Hi Jim,
 
I forgot to mention that there is another great new thing: NewDOS and its source code is free since 2024-02-06!
NewDOS itself is freeware since 2018.
 
 
NewDOS from André Olejko is no complete OS but a collection of more than 60 DOS commands and 3 games!
 
 
There is a free assembler asm86 available from André Olejko, but the source code has not been published till now.
I am not sure if he will publish it at all.
 
 
And now the bad news:
NewDOS and the assembler are in GERMAN only. It should be possible to translate it to english, but this will be a lot of work.
 
André informed me that he is NOT willing to give any feedback or to answer questions about his work.
He thinks that it is very good to keep his work alive for the future, but he does no longer program.
So PLEASE DO NOT SEND MAILS ETC to him.
 
@Jim: Would it be possible to keep a copy ad ibiblio or anywhere else?
 
THX.
 
Willi


They are small sites. So, I also mirrored them on my server as well.

They can be found along with the mirror of Eric’s website at https://m.lod.bz
