Hello Jim, Specifically, under gcc with optimization (e.g. -Os), the compiler determined that `board[sq]' with sq >= 30 would be "undefined behaviour". Because of this, it decided to elide out the entire "You have moved all your pieces off the board" check. (And unfortunately, it did not give

Technically, REM is a regular DOS command just like the others -- it's not a "comment" like we're used to seeing in most coding languages. If you type "REM" at a command line it doesn't give you a "Bad Command" error message because it is a legitimate command even though it doesn't really do

Interesting on the speed to NASM on DOS vs the Mac. When I first started using NASM in DOS I used a pre-build VM of FreeDOS 1.2, it ran very slow and not sure why. When I created my own VM using the FreeDOS CD it was tremendously faster, actually everything was much faster. I don’t have any

More detailed example of how I use guestmount on a virtual disk image. When I boot FreeDOS 1.3rc5 in QEMU, I use a disk image called rc5.img. Here's an example of "mounting" the DOS partition (the first disk partition, or /dev/sda1) from the rc5.img disk image, and copying a file off it so I can

There is supposedly a way to mount the virtual disk on macOS when it is unmounted from the VM but I haven’t been able to get it to work. VB comes with MacFuse for that purpose but have never been able to get it to work. Basically it can’t find the MacFuse library. I remember I tried doing
