Just a small correction - please change the URLs to start with http://www.brutman.com/ as per the original announcement. You've got http://brutmanlabs.org/, which is a PCjr running at 4.77Mhz. It's doing fine under load, but eventually it will run out of log space and be moved back to something more fun. :) Perhaps an online version of Eliza to compete with ChatGPT.

Sounds good! I've mirrored this, but marked it as invisible (sort of "pre-mirrored" it, if you will). I can mark it as "visible" at some later time. News item posted on the website. I'll also share it on Mastodon.

[Freedos-user] A new mTCP (2023-03-31) is available
http://www.brutman.com/mTCP/mTCP.html >From the release notes: - Unicode support for Telnet and IRCjr - RLE graphics support in Telnet (fun as a demonstration, but not very practical) - The web server gets a built-in SNTP client for keeping the server time correct across many days/weeks of runtime. - A keyboard handling workaround for VirtualBox users. (OpenWatcom had a run-time bug that interacts poorly with the incomplete BIOS keyboard handling in VirtualBox.) - Many small bug fixes and improvements, including in the base TCP/IP library. Jim & Jerome - As before, please give me a few weeks before mirroring it so that I can get a rough idea of how many people are downloading it. I need some reason to justify all of this work. ;-0 On a side note, unless something huge happens this is going to be the last update for a while. I suspect this code will last a few years. -Mike ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
