Hello,
unfortunately, I have to inform you that I have put together another testing release of FreeCOM, instead of the next patch level release.
The reasons are numerous, extending that I'm offline the next two weeks and that there should be another release soon.
In http://freedos.sourceforge.net/freecom/packages/TESTING/
you'll find: com082pl3ak/ -- TESTING release tst-crit/ -- Critical Error handling test release tstsuppl.zip -- built test release
a) tst-crit
implements a feature to autofail Critical Errors, but the first per drive. It should make DIR and %PATH% searches a lot less noisy.
Please test, and offer your opinion. I will offer the design descissions later on. (Why so and not Eric's for instance.)
b) tstsuppl.zip
Because of complains about the tricky SUPPL stuff, I put together this package. This would be downloaded from CVS. What do you think about it?
(Hint: DOCS\COMPILE.TXT is updated)
c) com082pl3ak/
includes:
