Does it work in the direction of having a borland compatible C library for

I wrote to the author this summer ... it looked that he wanted to

I think one of the bugs is a LFN bug when deleting a file...
A link at the kernel page would be good...

that works only in 32 bit.
As http://www.freebasic.net/index.php/about?section=diff
shows, FreeBASIC is very close to QuickBASIC already. And

Well, there are another two quite good BASIC compilers: Turbo Basic and
Power Basic.
You can both download from my site at: http://www.laaca.borec.cz/pascal.htm
(The site is in czech and there is a big title pascal but don't panic -
theese download links are at the bottom of page.)

I think what we REALLY need is a free PASCAL compiler that can
generate 16-bit code. I know for a fact that the OpenWatcom project
would welcome a PASCAL frontend to their toolset. Any takers?

No actually I was talking about starting another 16bit compiler project.
I believe that FreeDOS 32 has a big problem: they have to do it all from
scratch.

I would appreciate some FreeBASIC command line options to
