If you have troubles to find or compile, let me know.

Well DOS does not without LFN, and I try to use 8.3 to create DOS packages.

Can you complete the build with this?
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/libs/dflat/

no. this is linux stuff with unknown conversion status.
won't touch.


How is this Linux stuff? This is the _readme.txt_ file from that directory:

Hi Tom,


I just noticed that the source to FreeDOS EDIT
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/distributions/1.2/repos/base/edit.zip
is incomplete as it assumes an existing DFLAT library which is not
included, and at least non-trivil to locate on the internet.


Looking at my archives, there was a file with the obscure name
DFP100S.ZIP containing the sources. Such things happened when
people pretended that web browsers are unable to access files
with longer names than 8+3 characters :-p

There also is DFLAT100.zip which was used for EDIT 0.9a, but I
have to say my experience with EDIT is mostly 0.7a to 0.7d, while
the versions 0.81 and 0.82 are Joe's field of expertise instead.

Regards, Eric

This link, one level up from the DFLAT link I shared in my other email:

See how the directory path ends in "libs"?

That's the "libs" tree.

I think in the FreeDOS "beta" days, the distributions included programming
libraries too, basically a copy of the "libs" tree from Ibiblio. But we
probably stopped doing that around FreeDOS 1.0, but didn't remember the
libs dependency for any code.
