Re: [Freedos-devel] System Configuration Editor
I'm trying to build on what I've already done in the Pascal variant of turbo vision. Maybe I should learn the C++ variant instead.

[Freedos-devel] System Configuration Editor
I've dug up an old program that I used when I was a PC tech to edit configuration files (AUTOEXEC.BAT, CONFIG.SYS, and the assortment of Windows 3.x config files). It's written in (Turbo) Pascal.

I'm open to suggestions for this. -- BPM Camp - Free Virtual Workshop May 6th at 10am PDT/1PM EDT Develop your own process in accordance with the BPMN 2 standard Learn Process modeling best practices with Bonita BPM through live exercises http://www.bonitasoft.com/be-part-of-it/events/bpm-camp-virtual- event?utm_ source=Sourceforge_BPM_Camp_5_6_15utm_medium=emailutm_campaign=VA_SF___ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
