Goto: FD-NLS Translation Status and look for the programs that already contain Ukraine and most other languages.
Click on the program link on the left side and then choose nls-ai - and read the command.xy.UTF-8 files. E.g. command.nl.UTF-8 for you.
For correction please send me the UTF-8 version. It would be great if you could send as many fixes as possible in ONE mail attachment.
Some translations had to be rewritten as nobody gave me a real information which codepage is used by Esperanto (853) and Ukraine.
Thanks to Jerome and his special program CPwitch (not yet complete, but already works great!!!) I could test these and all 26 languages - and
simply create files with the correct codepages.
And AI is tricky too. In the last months I learned a lot how to handle it. E.g. although I told it into which 25 languages it should translate
it suddenly took other languages and forgot some of the selected, forgot accents, codepages, "dk, pb, cz" and used "da, br, cs" etc. etc.
I also think that it would be great if the FreeDOS trial versions would be available via the freedos.org website.

Ibiblio seems to be a bit slow at the moment?

Actual SOFTWARE updates in this build are:
> 2026-02-26 09:44:31 fdnpkg16 [unstable] (Shidel): updated to 0.99.8253c
> 2026-02-26 09:26:58 kernel [unstable] (Shidel): updated COUNTRY.SYS to 2.0
As Jeremy said:
> In order to get some more reviews, please have a look at
> https://www.fdos.org/country/
Feedback can be submitted at https://github.com/FDOS/country
> 2026-02-18 16:12:26 ldebug (Shidel): updated to release 10
> 2026-02-16 03:31:22 listpci (Shidel): metadata URL update
> 2026-02-16 03:14:17 fdnpkg16 [unstable] (Shidel): updated to 0.99.8253b
The country.sys update reminds me that:
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/repositories/unstable/html/en/base/kernel/20260226.3/index.html
Hooray! :-) Small updates for kernel 2044 "2026-02-26.3" (?)
including country.sys, setver.sys (?) and sys.com, the SECOND
monthly build with our new kernel, see Jeremy's 2026-01-25 mail:
Updated boot/init paths, env handling, filesystem/partition
handling, improved compiling, better FCB compatibility and
(network) redirector code, I/O and file size 4GB boundary
handling, WINDOWS 3.x ENHANCED MODE COMPATIBILITY, truename,
device and memory management handling and much more :-) :-)
See also: https://github.com/FDOS/kernel/releases/tag/ke2044
As this is the second release with the new kernel, I assume
people have been happy with it? Do you know download counts?
However, as described in my 2026-01-23 mail, it is almost
IMPOSSIBLE to 1. find and 2. test the interim builds on real
hardware :-( Jim, can you work on 1.? Thank you :-)
Jerome, how complex would it be to make the ISOs suitable for
use as USB boot images? Or to build a LiveUSB from the LiveCD?
Thank you :-)
Regards, Eric
