The first question I would ask is precisely how you might *read* current eBooks under DOS. If what you get is a plain text release from Project Gutenberg, you can do it.

Just how do you plan to *read* eBooks you might keep in a library maintained by Calibre or anything else? > Kare ______ Dennis _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
