each and every general file handling program like: COPY, XCOPY, Norton/Volkow Commander, ... ZIP, RAR, ... CHKDSK (and don't tell me CHKDSK isn't important), all Norton stuff xxBACKUP while they probably won't crash, some wont to what they are expected to do. Are you prepared to check the entire ecosystem of DOS utilities if they can handle 4GB+ size files ? it's probably MUCH a better idea to teach this hypotetical blueray player to handle multiple files. that's the reason I think that 4GB+ is a real stupid idea. > DOS-C's FAT+ support could be set by default I don't care what you do to DOS-C. but the FreeDOS kernel shouldn't support FAT+ > Since DOS-C doesn't (yet) support FAT16 file systems larger than 4 GiB yes another stupid idea. > , FAT16+ is no option anyway. right.
