FreeDOS also has AWK, which is very practical for text manipulation but also easy to use: * http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/util/unix/awk/ * Learn awk by coding a "guess the number" game * https://opensource.com/article/21/1/learn-awk That article also leads to the free e-book: * A practical guide to learning GNU Awk Having read both just now, it reconfirmed my opinion that AWK is incredibly useful (even for non-*nixers) in FreeDOS.

[Freedos-user] Recent articles about FreeDOS and programming
Hi everyone I write a lot about FreeDOS and programming for several tech websites, such as Opensource.com. Here are a few "year in review" articles I recently wrote for Opensource.com that may interest you: "Try FreeDOS in 2022" https://opensource.com/article/22/1/try-freedos - You might have seen the month-long article series from June 2021. I wrote 22 articles every Monday to Friday in June. In this article, I recap some of the most-read articles from that series. They generally fall into "New to FreeDOS," "FreeDOS for Linux users," and "Using FreeDOS." "5 ways to learn the C programming language in 2022" https://opensource.com/article/22/1/c-programming - C remains one of the most popular programming languages in 2021. If you'd like to explore several features of the C programming language, start with these popular articles from the last year: "5 tips for learning a new programming language in 2022" https://opensource.com/article/22/1/learn-programming - Anyone can get started in programming. We all started somewhere, and you don't need to have a computer science background to learn to code. This "best of" article links to several popular articles from 2021. I recommend "How different programming languages do the same thing" aand "How different programming languages read and write data." Both include C, which is great for programming in FreeDOS.
