RES: [Freedos-user] Re: Freeware: FileMaven (- laplink), CHK-SAFE (md5sum)

2004-07-19 Thread Carlos AB
I have one sugestion as I have made before, but the only problem is that
this program is not free.

It's a program called wbat and creates Dialog boxes for DOS batch:

* menus, buttons, input fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, list
selection

Easy handling, no ANSI stuff to deal with - colors are specified by name.
WBAT runs under all Windows versions or plain DOS.

Features:

* Layout for box with text and control elements - all elements can be
freely arranged
* Quick box with specifications in the command line
* Selection from batch generated lists (e.g. DIR file lists)
* Text pages with color attributes
* INI file with defaults and preferences
* Win NT/2000 compatible handling of variables

Mouse handling is supported in a GUI box as well as in full screen mode. Of
course WBAT will also work under plain DOS.

- Hi Johnson!
-
-  FileMaven - a file manager ... with ... and: A file transfer
-  module! You can run one instance in host mode and then open a
-  connection from another FileMaven on another PC. Transfer uses serial
-  or parallel link cables (wiring instructions included).
-   * Yes it DOES support printer port, as LapLink.
-
-  But DOS alike OS still miss some Killer Application such as
-  Peer-to-Peer swapping program such as Bit Torrent, the most vulnerable
-  part of DOS is the interpreter missing Long File Name support.
-
- You can install an LFN driver. And p2p stuff is mostly wasting bandwidth.
- People are leeching like crazy, far more than they could conceivably USE
- (you could say they download 50 hours of music each day...). I think this
- should not be the world of FreeDOS. People who call this useful computer
- use today will ask us tomorrow why they cannot click on PowderPoint in
- DOS.
-
- To make use of long file names, you can then use a DOS version of BASH :-
- ).
-
-  EzNos also suffer from missing LFN. EzNos itself works fine on my
-  office Pentium 133 PC.
-
- EzNos supports at most 3 parallel connections, I think, and is a single
- task. It can run on an 8086 with 5 MHz, too. If you want something real,
- any 386 with at least 4 MB, better 16 MB, of RAM can run an Linux Apache
- server. A very big part of the WWW today runs Apache. You are comparing
- a lighter to a barbeque here.
-
-  Even the famous MP3 encoder LAME don't have a latest DOS binary.
-
- So what - the old versions of LAME created MP3, too. Maybe slower and
- worse quality, but still... If time matters, better use any multitasking
- 32 bit OS, then you can do something else while encoding the MP3s.
-
-  Another wonderful soft-synth TIMIDITY same ...
-
- A soft-synth is only useful for an OS where programs use drivers for
- sound.
- There are attempts to steal audio data from software, with help of
- protected
- mode, but that should be seen as a kludge (e.g. used in VIAFMTSR
- Adlib/OPL3
- driver for DOS). Apart from that, DOS programs just access hardware
- directly.
