[Freedos-devel] If I want to compile applications in FreeDOS, which compiler should I use?

2011-08-21 Thread Decheng Fan
Hello everybody, I'm new to this mailing list, and I want to contribute to FreeDOS in some way a developer can do. Since I've used FreeDOS just as a replacement for MS-DOS, I know how to install it and how to run applications in it, but I don't know what's the standard (or recommended)

Welcome :-) Kernel AFAIK compiles with OW 1.9 + NASM (what versions ???). Tools are OW or BC or NASM or JAWASM. (BTW: is this documented somewhere ... easy to find and up-to-date ? Wiki ?) For new code you can use any compiler, though:

Besides cranky old RHIDE, I like GEANY; it is automatically extensible to C/C++, some basics, and at least NASM, the only asm I like. GEANY has a linux and a windows version, but make sure that for windows you use a very latest version, as a couple or three numbers ago, it would not work in
