When I use freedos, the command interpreter (in my system /usr/lib/dosemu/commands/comcom.com) has several bugs. Should they be reported to the freedos people or to the dosemu people? This program announces itself as
DOSEMU built-in command.com version 1.0 which suggests it belongs to dosemu. I have this program still from my original 1.0.2.1 installation. New versions are not built when I compile newer versions of dosemu; however, in src/plugin/commands I find a comcom.c, -.d, and -.o. I'm a bit confused. Is this built into newer versions of dosemu.bin itself? But if I do not have my old comcom.com (or a link to it) in the dos boot directory, dosemu complains of a missing command interpreter. Anyway the bugs I found are: 1) changing directory: C:\>cd\ws\text cd\ws\text: file not found A space is needed. This is unexpected (MS-DOS command.com does not need it) and therefore (IMHO) a bug. 2) running a program in a directory above the present one: C:\>cd \ws\text C:\WS\TEXT>..\ws ..\ws: file not found The file extension is needed: the command ..\ws.exe succeeds. 3) Problems with a TSR C:\WS\TEXT>cd\ cd\: file not found Same as bug 1): but now I install a TSR and do the same: C:\WS\TEXT>\oldc\tsr\minimon MiniMon Version 1.0 installed. Activate with <Ctrl-Alt-M> C:\WS\TEXT>cd\ cd\: insufficient memory Not "file not found" this time, but "insufficient memory", apparently caused by the TSR (even though freedos "mem" shows 619 k free at this point).
